Deadspin
We love the Las Vegas Review-Journal's gossip column, because it's excellent about disproving that whole what-happens-in-Vegas-stays-in-Vegas bunk. Their big get today is totally-not-a-guy-whose-career-collapsed-once-he-got-off-steroids former All-Star Bret Boone, who went a little crazy at the Wynn Las Vegas (link via BenMaller.com).
Boone rolled his golf cart Monday while playing on the Wynn's $500-a-round high-roller golf course. Later, he created a scene in the bar at the Wynn's Country Club Grill.Security was called when Boone, 36, got testy with Wynn staffers after they asked him to remove his feet from the bar in an area where patrons were dining.
"Make me!" replied Boone, among other choice words. When Boone fell off his bar stool and hit the floor, friends removed him from the bar before security arrived.
The good news? We know it's not roid rage. Well, probably not.

Tales of a Drunken Bret Boone are always a good time, especially since the farewell ceremony for Edgar Martinez, when friends and I disagreed over whether Boonie was wasted. My position was that, hell yes he was wasted, and I feel a little more vindicated with every T of a DBB I see or hear.
Boone gets a pass from me for saying, after being traded to the Padres, "Now I can go back to hating the Braves' guts."
