12.29.06 SHOCKEROO: MIKE TYSON DOES COCAINE
…and yet another American sports hero has fallen from grace. Mike Tyson was arrested last night for DUI and drug charges.
[Tyson] was stopped after his car almost struck a sheriff's vehicle while leaving the club at about 1:45 a.m.
Man, those fucking pigs will pull you over for anything these days, huh?
Tyson was placed under arrest after "showing more signs of impairment" during the field sobriety tests. Police then found cocaine on him and in his car.
A lot of people abuse the word "hero" and "brave," but that sheriff deserves the Medal of Honor. There isn't enough money in the world or a handgun large enough that could convince me to arrest and search a drunk and coked-up Mike Tyson. He's raped people for less. And bitten off ears. And traveled to Africa to practice female genital mutilation… I mean, probably. I guess I can't prove that.
UPDATE: A hunky tipster sends these fetching mug shot photos of the champ.

Apparently at some point even eating children becomes mind numbing.
Come on death, you can DO this!
I would gladly purchase him an eightball just to see what would happen.
Why even bother taking mug shots at this point? Is there anybody left in the American criminal justice system who can’t conjure a mental picture? “Tyson, Tyson . . . black guy, right?”
I would hate to be around him when he runs out of coke
