A rain cover tried to eat a man during a baseball game last night

Luckily, he had some friends on hand to help.

WHEN YOU THINK of a rain cover, or tarp as our US friends call it, you probably just think ‘oh great, this sporting even I’m watching is going to be delayed/cancelled now.’

Well you may want to look at tarp in a different light after one tried to EAT A MAN ALIVE last night.

During their 3-2 win over the San Diego Padres last night, Pittsburgh Pirates fans could only watch on helplessly as a groundskeeper was devoured whole by the cold, plastic monster he was trying to unfurl.

Luckily for him, there were plenty of Pirates players and staff around to help or who knows how this one could have ended.
