It's an advertisement campaign that started in 1986 as a means to discourage folks from littering.

One lady in Texas did her part by taking out some trash, NFL-style and you can check out the action in the video at the bottom of this article. Let's break it down.

Scoping Out Their Target

As the video opens, we see a young lady sitting at a table enjoying a meal. Two other women can be seen slowly approaching her from down the road.

Snatch and Dash

As they reach the woman, one of these rascals grabs her purse and they both take off in full sprint back from where they came.

They Picked the Wrong Lady

The victim immediately jumps up and runs after the perpetrators as fast as she can. Turns out this lady is FAST. It takes her all of three seconds to close the gap and form tackle the lady with the purse. After a brief struggle, she manages to wrestle the purse away from her assailant

She then runs back to get her phone and calls the cops.
