Drunk Cameraman?
There’s a legend (which has mostly been verified) that an NBC employee ran onto the field during the famous 1958 NFL Championship game because a TV cable had become unplugged because of the raucous crowd while Johnny Unitas was leading the Colts on what would be the game-winning drive. Stan Rotkiewicz, a statistician, apparently ran onto the field, playing a drunk to disrupt the game and give NBC time to fix the cable. According to his biography, Johnny Unitas didn’t buy the story because he thought no one could possibly act that well.
