Vrabel arrested for Bar Tab Disagreement

[signbabybrady]

You know...I'm accustomed to posters brushing off bad-boy behavior from draft prospects as "Hey, who didn't do stupid stuff like that when they were 19?"

But it's somehow less persuasive as "Hey, what married, 35-year-old man with a couple of kids at home doesn't find himself stealing beers from a riverboat casino at 5:00 a.m. on a school day?" (Gotta feel bad for the young Vrabel boys, that's seriously embarrassing.)

The stealing cant be brushed off but yes I think even 35 year old men with kids have long nights that bleed into the morning every once in awhile and a Casino is one place where it typically is OK.

Whether right or wrong Vegas/sin city has turned the gambling industry into a reason to get smashed and party and to be honest I think this is the case even as we get older. IMO it is one place where even older men throw everything aside as it has the stigma of being OK and generally it is until you steal something.

Yet apparently someone here felt it was time to brush aside about talk the theft charge by replacing it with discussion of a mere bar tab disagreement...LOL

Assuming that finger's pointed at me...guilty as charged. As more info came out, it started to sound a lot less innocuous than initially reported. :confused2:

I have to say, reading this thread I'm struck by the casino industry's PR genius. It appears that they've convinced the public that it's perfectly acceptable for grown men to behave wildly irresponsibly at any hour of the day or night, 365 days a year, as long as they're in a casino. So gambling has gone from being a vice to something that absolves you of all other vices! Bravo, casino industry!

Agree completely.

The strip club industry should take note of this and attempt the same spin.
Somehow, upon reflection, that probably won't work for some strange reason.

Don't look now but strippers and porn is getting kind of mainstream.

Judgement assessed; Vrabel is a LOSER!!!!

Judge Judy - Sir, do you mind telling me why you were taking beers without paying for them at 5 A.M.

Vrabel - It's just a miscommunication...

Judge Judy -SIR, you are a liar as well as a thief!!!!
