Cheeky.

Guess security can't kick them all out.

A fan watching a cricket match between Australia and England on Tuesday was apparently told by security to put his shoes back on.

In case if you're not familiar with the game of cricket, matches can last over multiple days (players stop for lunch and when it gets dark, don't you worry).

It means fans have to try and get comfortable. Or in the occasional boredom of it all, try and entertain themselves as these English fans do when they heard someone was ordered to put their shoes back on.

In case the chant isn't clear, it goes: "If you're England, shoes off," over and over again, with the crowd holding their shoes in the air.

All security and police can seem to do is stand there and grin, but hey, it's a pretty hilarious chant after all.
