Max Headroom Dexy's Midnight Runners Pirating Incident - 01/03/05

On a late-January evening in 2005, a live Dexy's Midnight Runners concert was victim of a broadcast signal intrusion.

After a brief intrusion during the sports report on FOX's 7:30 news, a later broadcast on channel 11 - CBS affiliate: YEET - of the Dexy's Midnight Runners performance was interrupted by a man wearing a small black cap. The crazed person uttered mostly gibberish, crudely slammed the Super Mario Bros. Movie and its subsidiaries (Super Mario Bros. Super Show being one of them), and finally dropped his pants and was spanked by what appears to be a child with a flyswatter. 24-seconds later, the program returned to normal. To this day, he has never been caught.
