And so with the World Series about to begin, we say our final goodbyes to Red Sox Nation, and I can think of no clearer metaphor for their season than this. A Red Sox fan giddily announces that she's going to run onto the field at Fenway, but she only makes it halfway down the steps before taking a header. But the hilarity doesn't end there. Video following the jump.
As you can see, she didn't even make it over the wall, as she is nabbed rather effortlessly by security. Then, for some reason, she raises her arms in triumph as if she's Drew Barrymore in Fever Pitch. No, you were more like Drew Carey, my dear.

Chelsea forward Raheem Sterling will give Saudi Arabian clubs the cold shoulder this summer, the Evening Standard reports, with the 29-year-old England international – who was booed by Blues fans at the weekend – set on helping the Stamford Bridge club get their hands on silverware next season.
Borussia Dortmund would be keen to bring on-loan winger Jadon Sancho back to the club on a permanent basis, but only if Manchester United are willing to accept half the £73million they bought the England international for in 2021, the Mirror reports.

Chelsea broke the Women’s Super League transfer record even as their men’s team sat out the January window.
While Premier League spending was down across the board to a combined £100m over the month, compared to last year’s record £815m as estimated by finance company Deloitte, an increasingly active WSL market peaked with the Blues’ move for Colombia forward Mayra Ramirez.
An initial 450,000 euros (£384,000), as stated by selling club Levante, is the English top flight’s highest ever fee – with add-ons worth 50,000 euros (£42,600) making it a potential world record in the women’s game.
Ramirez was recruited to cover for Sam Kerr’s expected season-long ACL absence while Manchester City replaced the similarly injured Jill Roord with Aston Villa…
Ilkay Gundogan came off the bench to inspire Manchester City to the win that secured the Premier League title on Sunday, but spare a thought for Bernardo Silva.
Gundogan came on in the 68th minute, just before Philippe Coutinho made it 2-0 to Aston Villa, as it looked like City would let the title slip from their grasp.
But in scenes comparable to their incredible win over QPR on the final day of the 2011-12 season, City scored three goals in the space of five minutes and 37 seconds to turn the game on its head.
Gundogan scored twice, either side of Rodri s equaliser, to seal his name in City folklore.
It was Silva who made way for Gundogan and, while celebrating his first Premier League title in style, it would seem a rather jolly Jack Grealish could not…

Paris Saint-Germain lost their fourth straight away game in all competitions as they fell 3-0 to Monaco at Stade Louis II on Sunday.
Two goals from Wissam Ben Yedder and another from Kevin Volland were enough to seal victory for Philippe Clement s side in a game in which PSG were second best for large periods.
Mauricio Pochettino was without Lionel Messi (flu) and so started Georginio Wijnaldum on the right of the front three alongside Kylian Mbappe and Neymar.
It was a deserved win for the Monegasques, who responded perfectly to going out of the Europa League on Thursday, while PSG remain 15 points clear at the top of the Ligue 1 table.

United had earlier taken the lead when Casemiro hammered Christian Eriksen s excellent left-wing free-kick home before Luke Shaw doubled their advantage with a neat finish.
