An Atlanta Braves security guard embarrassed himself on television Tuesday night when he tried to chase down a fan.

Fox Sports was broadcasting during the Braves outing against the Miami Marlins when a fan ran up behind the set waiving a jersey around. Seems like something that’s not too unusual. (RELATED: SHORT DUDE ASKS SECURITY IF THEY KNOW WHO HIS DAD IS, GETS PUMMELED INTO OBLIVION)

Well, one security guard rushed him like a running back hitting a hole in the offensive line, but things didn’t go well for him. He tripped over something, and absolutely face planted as the cameras were rolling.

It really doesn’t get much more embarrassing than that, and doing it while the cameras are rolling only that much worse.

Look, I understand that some security guards want to be tough guy hardos. It’s just the nature of the business. I get it, but you better be damn sure you can actually get the guy before sprinting off like that on television.

Whether you eventually catch him or not doesn’t matter. All that matters is that you got clowned on television in dramatic fashion. That’s not exactly easy to comeback from. Better luck next time!
