Streaker gets tasered

Attendees of last weekend's Jackson Hole, WY Demolition Derby were amused when a (very cute) streaker took to the grounds during an  intermission.  But the local police didn't find John Rodgers' shenanigans funny and, after giving chase for a few minutes, took him down with a taser gun.

The tasering provoked boos from the crowd as Rodgers' body convulsed before falling and writhing facedown in the dirt. As he was lifted by the police officers it was evident that he had lost control of his bladder.

Rodgers did get his 15 minutes of fame - but don't expect any streakers at next year's Demolition Derby.
