The Boston Red Sox hosted the New York Mets on Friday night, and the game was paused in the bottom of the fourth inning by a rain delay.

Fenway Park’s concourses flooded in the rain, so one brave fan stripped off his shirt and decided to turn the concrete hallway into a modified slip and slide.

Things have gotten a bit crazy in the rain, just look at this stairway:
