Citi Field Streaker banned from ballpark for one year (with video!)

You may remember this video that I shot at the May 12 game between the Braves and the Mets…

The man with the monkey around his waist, who had been identified as Craig Coakley of Queens, N.Y., has been banned from Citi Field for one year.

Coakley will also have to serve 20 days of community service and must pay a $1,000 fine and $2,000 in civil penalties, reports the AP.

Coakley ran on the field due to a bet with his boss, who claimed he would pay him a weeks salary if he did it.  I wonder if he’ll be using that money to pay his fines.
