Is this against the law???

Question

is it against the law for me to run on the field during a minor league baseball game from left outfield to right outfield and not touching any players or taking my clothes off? just a clean run from one side to the other during a game?

Answer 1

I dont know what exactly you could get charged with, but my question to you is why would you want to do this?

There are a lot of other places you can run

Answer 2

DO IT!!!

That would be SO awesome

Answer 3

They will tackle you and fine you.

Answer 4

Cannot tell you about minor league baseball but I expect what applies to major league baseball applies to the minors as well.  I used to work for the Colorado Rockies and running on the field was considered criminal trespass and would get you arrested and charged with a felony.  We even had two jail cells to store these people until the Denver cops got around to transporting them to jail.

Call the team or the local police before doing something like this unless you want to spend a night in jail or maybe a weekend if you are stupid enough to do it on a Friday.

Answer 5

they can get you for disorderly conduct, but that is a very minor offense. besides that, i dont think so.

Answer 6

yeah you should check the stadium ticket holders policy i know it will disrupt the game and  u will be asked to leave.

Answer 7

Do it and find out. Spend the night in jail like the rest of the drunk fools who ran out onto the field have. Drunk or not they will arrest you.

Answer 8

You are disrupting the game, and there are probably park rules against this, so after you're taken down (not sure about minor league security anyway so I don't know if you will) or caught, you can get in trouble.  Im not sure if it would be disorderly conduct, or something.

Answer 9

You will get arrested for disrupting the game. You'll probably stay at a county jail, if necessary. If you don't touch the players, they can't charge you with assault of any kind. You will probably be charged with disorderly conduct, and if you're not under the influence, you won't get charged with being intoxicated. If the police try to arrest you and you run from them, they'll charge you with evading arrest or aggravated arrest. If you try defending your self from the police, they'll charge you with aggravated assault and you may get a two year penalty in prison.

Answer 10

I would assume that the rules and laws at a minor league game are similar to a major league game.  In the majors, it's trespassing that will get you a fine around $1000.  If that's worth it to you to interrupt the game to try to draw attention to yourself, go for it.  I'm sure that the local government won't mind your contribution to their budget.

Answer 11

the only thing i think that they could get you for is disorderly conduct
