Rugby Team Fined $15,000 Because Player Pissed On Field During Play
New Zealand Warriors forward Russell Packer heard nature calling and figured the green grass of a rugby field was as good a place as any to relieve himself.
You can sort of see him tinkle and then, disgustingly, shake himself dry (and his shorts likely wet) while standing with his hands on his hips. The league was aware of the incident almost immediately and his team was later fined. In case you were unconvinced by the video, Packer even admitted to taking the piss in a since-deleted tweet.
If that does sate your golden-shower thirst, here's a blast from the about-a-thousand-miles away-from-New-Zealand-Rugby past: Don McKinnon in 1988 with a full-stream piss on the field, right behind the referee. Back in those days there were no interchanges like there are now, making his transgression slightly less egregious. He was fined $1,000.
Weirdly, both Packer and McKinnon urinated on the same field while playing against the same team; the Brisbane Broncos, who must be...upset.
