Murray Greig

As the last seconds ticked off before Scotland's historic win over Australia in Newcastle, Scottish rugby fan Murray Greig leaped onto the field and ran, cartwheeling and handstanding on the grass, exposing the Australian home fans to the underwear-free nether regions under his kilt (what was historic about the match?). Now the 22-year-old fan is being called "Braveheart" in newspaper headlines, and video footage of his streak is being used to promote Scotland's rugby tour (find an interview with Greig, post streak).
