Someone Threw a Hot Dog at Tiger Woods. Seriously.

During the final round of the Fry's.com Open Tiger Woods had something happen to him that he never thought would have during a round of competitive golf. A renegade fan jumped the rope while on the seventh green Sunday at CordeValle, yelling Tiger's name and throwing a hot dog at him:

"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 all. "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."

According to police the 31 year old man was not drunk, and claims to have tossed the dog in the air not at Tiger himself.  Either way, not the brightest idea I've ever heard. Luckily, no one was hurt.

"I guess he wanted to be in the news," Woods said. "And I'm sure he will be."
