A 25-year-old named Alex Gonzalez decided to make a bold move by running shirtless onto the pitch at the Super Bowl, capturing the experience from his perspective in a video he shared.
Streakers are often seen at major sporting events, darting across the field until they are inevitably stopped, sometimes by security or even players themselves. This was the case for Gonzalez, who attempted to outrun security and ended up being caught by New England Patriots wide receiver Kyle Williams.
Gonzalez managed to jump down onto the playing field, initially dodging several members of the security team. He made it to the center of the pitch before being intercepted.
Despite being shirtless, Gonzalez was wearing trousers during his escapade. His video starts with him in the stands before he makes his leap onto the field. He can be seen joyfully running as he evades the security staff, who are in hot pursuit.
In the clip, security staff appear ahead of him as he makes his way across the pitch. The video adds a comedic pause when Williams comes into view, moments before Gonzalez hits the ground.
Eventually, security personnel subdue Gonzalez, and he concedes, repeatedly saying, “You guys got me, you guys got me, I’m right here, you guys got me.”
Gonzalez also had messages written on his body, with “Trade with Athena” and a social media handle ‘@fxalexg’ on his back, and “trade in the blindspot” on his front, promoting a trading platform.
In a social media post, Gonzalez expressed no regrets, stating, “One of my goals has always been to streak the Super Bowl. I did it now, and I’ll do it again.” Despite being charged with a misdemeanor offense, as reported by The Mirror, Gonzalez seems content with his actions.
