BC Lions player tackles streaker at home opener (VIDEOS)

It was a memorable home opener for the BC Lions on Saturday, partly because of their win but also because of a streaker.

A Lions fan, in a jersey and underwear, took to the field during the game, and became the highlight for a few seconds before being tackled.

In a video, Lions defensive back Marcell Young is seen looking at the streaker, who was approaching his direction.

As the streaker got close to Young, the Lions player casually tackles, and levels the fan.

The team celebrated their win on social media, by sharing a streaker gif, but the tweet has since been deleted.
