Fan Runs On the Field, Runs a 4.36 40 Yard Dash

When Felix Toledo ran onto the field during game 3 of the Twins-Yankees series, he was fulfilling a life-long dream that he’s always want to do. Little did Toledo know that his life was about to change forever.

Toledo was clocked from Section 104 in left field to Section 136 in Right Field in a blistering 7.05 seconds as he ran away from the overweight Minnesota police department. Minnesota Viking scouts at the game said that his time was equivalent to a 4.36 40-Yard dash. Now scouts from every NFL team are making their way to a Minnesota State prison to see if this bolt of speed was due to the adrenalin of running away from the police and the large amount of alcohol in his system at the time, or if Toledo is just a great talent that was flying under the radar because he was too lazy to join his high school football team.

Toledo is expected to be released from prison in 30-45 days, meaning that he will be a great addition for any team looking to make a push into the postseason. When asked which football players he idolizes, Toledo was quick to name players who have had incidents with law enforcement: Michael Vick, Plaxico Burress, and Donte' Stallworth. For those who need wide receiver help in fantasy leagues, Toledo is expected to be a hot waiver wire pick this week.
