If you’re going to go at The Freeze, you better be able to run — and run fast.
Unfortunately for an Atlanta Braves fan Thursday, he taunted The Freeze, and it blew up in spectacular fashion.
During Braves games, The Freeze races a fan along the warning track in the outfield. The fan always gets a massive head start, but The Freeze almost always catches up and wins the race.

This fan, as he began to run the left field foul line while getting his head start, decided to turn and blow The Freeze a kiss. Big mistake.
The fan then began running but didn’t hit top speed. He then turned around, saw The Freeze gaining ground quickly and kicked into a higher gear.
Unfortunately for him, it was too little, too late.

The Freeze blew by the fan and returned the favor, blowing him a kiss as he flew on by.
After leaving the fan in the dust, The Freeze turned on cruise control and slowed it down a little bit before racing through the finish line along the right field foul line.
The Braves are trying to avoid being like the fan and blowing a big lead. They are 61-42 and lead the National League East by 5½ games over the Philadelphia Phillies.
