Mike Tyson arrested for DUI and cocaine possession |
Can you imagine a policeman issuing a field sobriety test to Mike Tyson? “Over here, champ, walk the line. Bite, er, touch both ears.”

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Mike Tyson was arrested for driving under the influence and possession of cocaine after police stopped him leaving a Scottsdale nightclub early Friday.
This doesn’t surprise or shock me. Fortunately, nobody was hurt. What makes me go hmm is wondering what will shock me concerning Iron Mike any more. Murder? I really hope Iron Mike finds his way because whatever track he’s on doesn’t seem to be leading anywhere positive. What a sad, sad story. Cus D’Amato must be turning in his grave.
Did this post make you go hmm?

“bite, er, touch both ears”…..lmao!! Nothing this man does surprises me at all. When I saw this story on the news I couldn’t help but think of Mickey’s line (from Rocky 1)….’it’s a waste of life’.

in addition: DANTE’ STALLWORTH…….
MIAMI- Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donte’ Stallworth, 28, has been suspended indefinitely by the NFL. Stallworth who had signed a seven year, $35 million contract with the Browns was arrested on March 14 after he struck and killed a pedestrian while under the influence of alcohol.
Stallworth who met up with fellow Browns receiver Braylon Edwards, 26, at the Miami Beach Club drank tequila shots from Edward’s table to include shots that he had bought. After leaving the Club, Stallworth proceeded home to his Miami Condominium for a nap, where he made the decision to go out for breakfast. This is when Stallworth while driving his 2005 Bentley struck and killed pedestrian Mario Reyes who was leaving his job as a crane operator.
When questioned by Miami Beach police if he was intoxicated, Stallworth stated: “No, sir.” That he had been drinking shots of tequila “Three, four at the most,” “I wasn’t really counting.”
However, in a statement made by Edwards he and Stallworth were drinking earlier in the day poolside at the hotel before they met up later at the Miami Beach Club. Stallworth’s credit card receipts show purchases of a $375 bottle of Patron Silver and $90 worth of tequila shots. Edward’s purchases showed $3,443 in alcohol ranging from Grey Goose Vodka to Perrier-Jouet Rose Champagne. Stallworth stated that he had drank tequila that Edward’s had purchased to include that of his own purchases.
In a toxicology analysis report it was established that Stallworth tested positive for marijuana. No mention of marijuana use was made by Stallworth or Edwards.
Stallworth received a 30 day jail sentence where he served only 28 days after pleading guilty to DUI manslaughter. An unspecified financial agreement was also met by Stallworth and the Reyes family, thus resulting in his light jail sentence.
