Over the last two years, there’s been a number of strange developments in the world of Tiger Woods. From mysterious accidents to accusations of drug use to deviant sexual behavior. None of those things, however, were as weird or as hilarious as this incident that occurred yesterday.

While playing in the 4th round at the Frys.com Open, a 31-year old drunk man ran on the green and threw a hot dog in his direction.

“Some guy just came running on the green, and he had a hot dog, and evidently … I don’t know how he tried to throw it, but I was kind of focusing on my putt when he started yelling,” said Woods, who didn’t seem bothered by it. “Next thing I know, he laid on the ground, and looked like he wanted to be arrested because he … put his hands behind his back and turned his head.”

Sgt. Jose Cardoza said the man was arrested for disturbing the peace and removed from the property. Because it was a misdemeanor, Cardoza said the man would not be taken to jail and his name not disclosed. Cardoza said only that he was from Santa Rosa.

If the man was in his 20s, you could probably blame the foolishness on typical drunken college behavior–perhaps even some kind of dare. But it appears this guy was just feeling saucy on a Sunday afternoon. That, or maybe he’s the scorned lover of the Tiger Woods’ Perkins waitress.

Actually, that would make a lot more sense.
