There is now a man on the pitch with a box containing some honeycomb frames to collect up the bees. A member of the ground staff appears to be using his pink shirt to equally good effect. This is what sport should be all about - enthusiastic amateurism - down with anodyne professionalism!
What I'm most interested to know is where this beekeeper came from. Is he a member of the ground staff who happened to have some honey and a white keeper's overalls? Does the ground staff have a full-time beekeeper on the payroll for just such a contingency? Was he a member of the crowd who has stepped in to save the day? Or a local expert urgently rushed to the ground?
