"I've got no intention of ever shedding my clothes again in Texas," said Roberts, who calls himself the "World's Greatest Streaker," and claims to have performed more than 300 such stunts around the globe.

Roberts was convicted of misdemeanor trespassing Monday and could have faced six months in jail and a $2,000 fine.
