*UPDATED: They took down the video. Here's a photo from Daily Breeze photographer Scott Varley:

Did you see this last night? This dummy climbed into the fountain at Angels Stadium and dunked himself.

Anaheim police arrested him.

The Orange County Register has identified him as an El Cajon man and has more on what happened to him. And, the police say he wasn't drunk, which says a little something about the man's intellect.

By the way, he ended up missing a classic game while in the slammer.

That's why reporters make phone calls and check things out. I don't know who posted this video.

From the OC Register story: "He’s 29, from El Cajon, according to Anaheim Police Sgt. Rick Martinez.

And, in what will undoubtedly surprise many who watched Cervera traipse around the rocks and flop into the fountain behind center field, he was not drunk."

It's too bad the You Tube (Boob Tube?) clip contradicts your reporting that the idiot wasn't drunk.
