    ....aren't the sharpest tools in the shed.

    In March, according to a Dallas police report, pro hockey goaltender Ed
    Belfour, desperately trying to avoid a public intoxication arrest, offered two
    patrolmen $100,000 to forget the whole thing, and by the time they were set to
    haul him to the station, Belfour had vomited all over himself and upped the
    offer to $1 billion.



    This is from the News of the Weird newsletter, but I am sure it can be confirmed.

    This was all over local (to me) TV and radio when it happened.

    Belfour's had issues before, which were blown way out of proportion in the press because of who he is. (For those that don't know, he's one of the four or five best goaltenders in the sport.)

    In a way, he's a little like Barkley. He needs someone to go with him when he "parties," to make sure he doesn't have a few drinks and do something dumb.
