One man had a rough Sunday night during Super Bowl LV.

Late in the game as the Buccaneers were well on their way to beating the Chiefs, a man jumped onto the field and managed to run around for a surprisingly long time. (SLIDESHOW: These Women On Instagram Hate Wearing Clothes)

As he neared the goal line, he appeared to slide and give himself up. However, security still dropped the hammer. Watch Kevin Harlan call the action in the awesome video below. (SLIDESHOW: 142 Times Josephine Skriver Barely Wore Anything)

I hate to Monday morning quarterback this situation, but it seems like this was definitely a penalty on the security.

The fan on the field, who appeared to be trying to streak, gave himself up at the goal line. That was a textbook slide.

He went feet first, lowered himself and went down as any QB is trained to do. Yet, security still dropped him.

If that’s not a 15 yard penalty for unnecessary roughness or a late hit, then I don’t know what is.

Either way, I’m sure the police had a nice long chat with this fellow after he decided to rush the field, and I’m sure that talk wasn’t a fun one.
