Okay, so, I came across this name, Morganna Roberts, also known as Morganna or “The Kissing Bandit.” Sounds wild, right? I got curious and decided to dig in and see what this was all about. Turns out, this lady was quite the character back in the day.
I started by checking out who she was. Born in 1947, she was some kind of entertainer, but not your typical one. She got famous for running onto baseball fields and kissing players. Yep, you heard that right. This woman was all about sneaking into games and planting kisses on unsuspecting athletes.
I dug a bit deeper and found out that she didn’t just stop at baseball. She apparently kissed a bunch of basketball players too, and even some minor league guys. One report said she kissed around 37 baseball players and 12 NBA stars. Can you believe that? I mean, the guts on this woman!
- First off, I tried to figure out how many players she actually kissed. One source said 18 baseball players by 1986, another said 37. So, the numbers are a bit fuzzy, but it’s clear she was quite active.
- Then, I looked into specific incidents. She even kissed George Brett twice! She got him more than once, and he’s a big-name player. That’s just wild to me.
- After that, I searched for what she’s up to now. There wasn’t much recent info, but it seems like she was a big deal in the ’70s and ’80s.
So, I spent a good chunk of my day reading about her antics. It’s just mind-blowing how she managed to do all this. Running onto the field, dodging security, and getting close enough to kiss these players – it’s like something out of a movie.
Here’s a breakdown of my little investigation:
- Started with the basics: Who is Morganna Roberts?
- Moved on to the juicy stuff: How many players did she kiss?
- Looked for specific stories: Like the George Brett double-kiss.
- Tried to find current info: But it seems she’s more of a historical figure now.
Honestly, the whole thing was pretty entertaining. It made me think about how different times were back then. I doubt something like this could happen today with all the security and rules. Morganna Roberts was definitely one of a kind, a real character. It was a fun little dive into a quirky piece of sports history.
