CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) - Yellowstone National Park officials say they've ticketed a man caught on video walking dangerously close to Old Faithful geyser.

Ashley Lemanski of Harbor Beach, Michigan, shot the video Friday. She says rangers repeatedly yelled at the man to get to safety. She says they caught up with him after he eventually walked back onto nearby boardwalks and paths.

The pathways are clearly market. There are warning sighs. Why was he doing this?

Here are the top 5 possible excuses me might have given the police.

1). Wyoming is such a dry state, I needed some humidity.

2). I was thinking it was a gateway to hell and I needed to talk to my mother-in-law.

3). Doesn't the Yellowstone Hotel come with a sauna?

4). It was either get my face burned off of get gored by a buffalo. The buffalo thing has been done.

5). I'm stupid. Can we just leave it at that?
