Rugby league fan breaks into commentary box to call for air conditioning to be turned down in X-rated rant
A rugby league fan incredibly broke into the BBC’s commentary box during a match to call for the air conditioning to be turned down in an X-rated rant.
Bradford Bulls were taking on Workington Town when the supporter gatecrashed the area where live radio was being broadcast.
And he could be heard saying: “The air conditioning unit is making a f****** racket. You turn it off.”
Addressing what was happening next to him, the commentator then said: “There’s something kicking off here. I’m not sure what’s going on. I do apologise for this interruption. It’s live radio.”
The fan then accused what appears to be a security guard of “assaulting” him.
But the BBC commentator begins to see the funny side as he chuckles before adding: “There’s an intruder in the commentary box.”

And the clip then ends with the supporter once again exclaiming: “He’s assaulting me. He’s physically assaulted me there!”
After the incident, the commentator took to Twitter to describe the remarkable scene.
He said: “In my 13 seasons of covering live #RugbyLeague on the radio, I’ve never experienced a supporter breaking into the commentary box to ask for the air conditioning unit to be turned down.
“Apologies for any profanities you may have heard earlier today.”

Bradford Bulls went on to win the match convincingly as they clinched a 48-18 victory.
Trailing 8-6 at half-time, the home side came roaring back after the break to seal an impressive result.
