Junior Seau is usually the one hitting hard on Sundays, but this past weekend he was the one who got hit…. by a fan!
Apparently he was caught off guard by a fan who jumped out and tackled him by surprise. (Which incidentally, if you’re looking for a way to share the love with your favorite player – this is NOT the way to do it!)
Seau was cool as a cucumber about the whole thing. I especially love this video where he said, “We rolled around, said Merry Christmas, and they pulled him away.”
Tough guy with a sense of humor…. I love it!
The fan, Todd Kobus, was charged with trespassing and assault and battery and pleaded not guilty. Kobus said he was a big fan of Seau and just “meant to give him a big hug.”
The REALLY stinky part (if you’re a football fan) is that the tickets that Kobus used will be revoked. Ouch.
