NFL fans were left stunned on Sunday as a fan invaded the pitch at the Super Bowl – only to get tackled by security short of the end zone.
TV cameras refused to show the invader, who galloped a full 80 yards down the field with three security guards in tow.
And if his dream was to score a touchdown on Super Bowl Sunday, he fell just short as he was dragged down at the 20-yard line.
The fan was carrying a white flag and was wearing a branded Super Bowl jacket.
Shaun McVay's Rams could have done without the interruption after a torrid start to the second half, which saw them throw away a 13-10 advantage.
Super Bowl tickets have gone for thousands of dollars this season and fans were quick to question why someone would enter the field after paying so much.
One wrote: "What you probably didn’t see on TV: This idiot, who likely spent thousands for his ticket, just ran across the field and got decked by security."
This isn't the first time that a spectator has entered the field at a Super Bowl, with a similar incident in last year's match between Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Kansas City Chiefs.

On that occasion, a streaker later identified as Yuri Andrade sprinted onto the pitch in a pink mankini.
He evaded security long enough for the game to be halted, before eventually being dragged down.
