The Canadian Football League’s Grey Cup showpiece was disrupted in bizarre fashion on Sunday night after a naked woman casually strolled onto the field.
As the Toronto Argonauts and Winnipeg Blue Bombers battled it out in the league’s championship game, players were left stunned when the streaker – who was wearing nothing but brown boots while holding a blue coat – held up proceedings in Vancouver.
Footage of the unusual moment initially shows her falling to the ground after walking backwards on the field, before she returned to her feet and threw her arms up in the air while facing the two teams.
After players looked on awkwardly, the woman then turned around and made her way off at her own pace, with no stewards seen frantically trying to apprehend her at any stage.
It was only when she reached the end of the field that two police officers finally intervened and escorted her out of the arena as she tried to put her coat on.
Streakers or field invaders are typically issued lengthy bans from the sport they disrupt.
But fans on social media were left stunned by how nonchalantly she was apprehended by police after interrupting the season finale with no clothes on.
One user wrote on X: ‘Nobody cared enough to chase her down lol’.
Another posted: ‘They gave shorty all the time in the world lol’.
‘The one person that can get away with not being tackled,’ said a third.
While one simply asked: ‘What’s the point of this?’
After the bizarre disruption, the Toronto Argonauts went on to clinch their record-extending 19th Grey Cup title in a 41-24 victory over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
Backup quarterback Nick Arbuckle inspired the win with a sensational display which saw him complete 26 of his 37 passes for 252 yards and two touchdowns, having played just 25 CFL games in his career before Sunday’s game.
