In attempt to meet Mike Piazza, a Long Island kid posed as a reporter to get into the locker room and stalk his life-long hero. The impostor, Ryan Leli was not messin' around. He had a fake press pass, a silver tongue, and reporter's notebook … the security at Shea Stadium didn't stand a chance.

Leli is a seemingly strange kid with an obsession with meeting celebrities. He's not even honest about it, either, spending his days faking his way into backstage areas, locker rooms, and VIP clubs. His "collection" includes photos with Owen Wilson, Tom Cruise, and Diddy, who he somehow stalked down and begged for photos.

But this time, as he tried to capture a pic with his number one celeb, his planned failed.

On Friday, with a legitimate ticket in his pocket, he once again presented his phony NBC identification at the press gate, authorities said.

But this time, he never made it to the locker room to conduct more bogus interviews. Stadium security guards and detectives from the prosecutor's office, who had been watching for him, moved in and arrested him.

The charges are pretty severe: petty larceny, criminal possession of a forged instrument, falsifying business records, criminal possession of stolen property, criminal impersonation and trespassing.

If only he had worn coke-bottle glasses and a tweed jacket …
