UK Soccer Fan, 19, Arrested for Running Onto Field, Jumping on Back of Rival Goalkeeper - Video

Now here's an idea that could make soccer more interesting to American audiences: random drunk fans roaming the sidelines, waiting for their opportunity to run onto the field and disrupt the game. That would really bring an element of surprise to the game, don't you think?

Like this idiot did in the United Kingdom. Watch the video below and let us know what you think.

A teenage football fan has been arrested after attacking a goalkeeper during the closing stages of a match. The fan jumped on top of Wycombe Wanderers goalkeeper Jordan Archer during the final moments of his side's 1-0 League Two win over Gillingham last night. The 19-year-old goalkeeper - who is on loan from Premiership side Tottenham - was placing the ball prior to taking the goal kick when the supporter entered the field from the terraces.
