"They'll kill me down there," said Roberts, a native of Liverpool, England. "That's Texas -- they'll execute me." Yet there was Roberts Sunday night, using a Velcro officiating outfit to sneak his way onto the field at Reliant Stadium, then stripping the clothes off and parading around in a silver G-string.

After a 6-minute delay, he was taken off on a stretcher to a loud ovation. Having regained consciousness, he pumped his hands in the air. "I felt bad...
