Joba Was Heckled With Red Sox Comments Before DUI
21st October, 2008 - 11:11 am
New York Daily News - Joba Chamberlain, who had a blood-alcohol level more than 1-1/2 times Nebraska's legal limit when he was arrested, was heckled as he and friends watched the dancers at the Night Before Lounge, witnesses said.

"Some guy yelled out, 'If you played for the Red Sox, you wouldn't be sitting here,'" clubgoer Gary (Bo) Bohaty said.

"That got a rise out of him," said Bohaty, owner of the Beacon Lounge, a bar next to the strip club. "[Joba] turned his head and said, 'What did you say?' and the guy yelled it out again."

As Chamberlain kept shouting back, one of the pitcher's friends got into a shoving match with the heckler, said the club's manager, who asked not to be identified. [READ]
