Neither Jake Arrieta nor any of his Cubs teammates were the most excited about the right-hander’s second career no-hitter on Thursday night against the Reds.
That honor belonged to a random Cubs fan at Great American Ball Park, who rushed the field after Arrieta got the 27th out and joined the Cubs’ celebratory mob around the right-hander. The fan was quickly dragged off by security personnel.

I'll remember this no-hitter for the Cubs fan who got into Arrieta's celebration and got pulled away by a cop: pic.twitter.com/e7GVzOiKbb
