I read a headline that said "Mike Vrabel arrested for felony theft". When did stealing eight bottles of beer constitute a felony?

In Indiana any theft, even a pack of gum, is a felony.

Re: Mike Vrabel arrested for stealing 8 beers from casino
 

The story makes no sense at all.
1) Vrabel can probably afford to buy an entire brewery, let alone 8 beers.
2) As mentioned, Vegas casinos give everyone FREE ALCOHOL. Why make 8 beers national news?

I think this isn't about beer at all. He did something or said something to piss them off. And they screwed him on this story.

I didn't know that!!

That Indiana rule is stupid.

Re: Mike Vrabel arrested for stealing 8 beers from casino
 

I dint know Indiana had any casinos, which one did he get pinched in?

Re: Mike Vrabel arrested for stealing 8 beers from casino
 

Since video cameras are installed throughout most casinos (insert your own “Vrabel should be used to that since he played for the Patriots” line here), there should be visual evidence of the alleged incident.

LMAO!!!!!

All the casino's that I have gone to the alcohol is free. I wouldn't go to that club!

Re: Mike Vrabel arrested for stealing 8 beers from casino
 

Booze is usually free on the floor, but not at an eatery as in this case.

according to some tweets, it's a dispute over his tab that is the source of this.

That changes things a little bit, but let me do the math real quick, 8 beers X $5 = $40 = :( + drunk at 530 am + police and ticket ($$) = millionaire Mike Vrbael is one big f*ckin idiot

Re: Mike Vrabel arrested for stealing 8 beers from casino
 

Sounds like a simple misunderstanding. No reason to believe he would stiff them for a few beers.

Chico:

Well played, sir...

He was busted by a gaming official who I believe in most states don't work for the casinos. Don't know about Indiana though. I doubt a casino is going to pop a pro football player for 8 bottles of beer. Had to be someone with a stick up their ass. Gaming officials are born with them.

99 botles of beer on the wall, 99 bottles of beer...

Re: Mike Vrabel arrested for stealing 8 beers from casino
 

This sounds like an eight game suspension.

One game for every bottle.

Boy is this strike going to be freakin boring.

Re: Mike Vrabel arrested for stealing 8 beers from casino
 

Maybe he just likes to steal stuff.
