Update: The Brit who interrupted Webb Simpson as he was being interviewed by Bob Costas after winning the U.S. Open Championship golf tournament was drunk, police said.

Andrew James Dudley, 40, of Wallasey, United Kingdom was briefly detained by police after he snuck in front of TV cameras and made bird noises. Dudley was wearing a goofy Union-Jack outfit when he was hauled off by police.

What?? Alcohol??

I never would have guessed that alcohol was involved!

Too many ripe berrys

He coulda been a contender(for state bird of MN)

It was funny to see Costas come across as a humorless jerk.

Furyk needed the birdie more than Tiger.

The guy is a wacko tree hugger...gives drunks a bad name

I wish this guy would do the same act during an Obama presser.

Funniest video I’ve seen in a while..

[newheart]

What? That’s all you do? Bird imitations?

was held in the local precinct’s drunk tank
The same fate should await any moron on the course who yells out - Get in the hole!

“I wish this guy would do the same act during an Obama presser.”

I’d pay to see that...

What a surprise... NOT

This dweeb is 40? He looks about 60 to me...

"Amateur"

[goseminoles]

Ur arh, ur arh, ur arh! !!

[donozark]

Who says Brits are humorless, stiff-upper-lip people?

Maybe he was just trying to find Obama? The guy who spends more time on the greens than in the WH?

[SMARTY]

Ha! He doesn’t look too old, so he has the rest of his life to live it down.

[CodeToad]

Copycat

If Costas moves too fast or laughs, his toupee could slip off.

Someone just needs to insert Birdman into every Bamster presser pic/vid (like the pepper spray cop).
