David Hasselhoff gets smashed in UK airport

Ok, this was way too funny not to post:

LIFE STYLE EXTRA (UK) - David Hasselhoff was banned from a plane for being too drunk.

The 'Baywatch' star, nicknamed The Hoff, turned up intoxicated to London's Heathrow airport at 7am yesterday (26.07.06), and then continued to knock back drinks in British Airways' first class lounge as he waited to board his 9.55am flight to Los Angeles. The troubled actor - who recently claimed he had beaten his alcohol problems - ranted to airline staff and VIP passengers about his divorce and moaned, "My life is a mess."

An onlooker said: "He was drinking alone and staring into space, He started ranting incoherently. It was clear he was talking about his wife and the messy divorce. Her was sobbing and nodding his head."

During his drunken stupor the star stumbled into a duty free shop and lifted up the manageress.

Another witness revealed: "The manager said, 'I don't think you're fit to fly, sir.' He told her. 'I think you are right.'"

Onlookers were even more horrified when a dark wet patch appeared around the actor's groin area.

BA staff decided Hasselhoff was unfit to travel and asked him to sleep it off and wait for another flight.

He was finally allowed to board a flight two hours later, but was taken there in a buggy - usually reserved for elderly passengers.

A BA spokesman confirmed: "A male passenger was denied boarding on the BA279 Heathrow to Los Angeles service because he was deemed unfit to travel. He was assessed later and passed fit to fly on BA283.

a) who gave him the nickname, "The Hoff"? sounds like something he came up with when he was drunk.

b) who knew he had alcohol issues? Evidently someone took the cancellation of Knightrider a little too seriously?

c) d*m... who here knows the line from "Raising Arizona" that comes to mind?

This is great, I thought my brother was the only one to get his boarding pass ripped up for being to drunk. Now he is in good company, hehehe!

a) he gave it himself because when he is drunk he can not spell Hasselhoff

b) it was not the cancellation that made him drink but the car getting more fan mail

c) I am going with
You wet yourself! You wet yourself! Mr.McDunnough wet himself, Daddy

Maybe he didn't wet himself, but maybe something caused his "Wonder" underwear to spring a leak. You know what they say about sports cars and the owners um...size....

Give the guy a break. His divorce was finalized yesterday.... 16 years of marriage...over. I would think he would be hurting.

He looked pretty rough on "America's Got Talent" last night...

Ok, this is great too. An article dated 7/24/2006 (for those that can't do math, that's 3 days ago) where The Hoff states "I don't drink anymore."

Two sides to every story...... All you've looked at is the UK tabloid side....

Besides that, the guy's life is pretty hosed..... think we could show a little compassion instead of yukking it up?
