Jul 16 2008'Rampage' Jackson attempts hit & run while driving truck with his face on it (FAIL)
Former UFC champ Quinton "Rampage" Jackson was arrested yesterday after hitting a whole bunch of cars while attempting to elude police in Costa Mesa, Calif. In case you missed the headline, Rampage was driving a massive camoflauged Ford F-250 that kind of sort of had his face plastered on both driver AND passenger-side doors. I guess he was trying to compete with the Joker's smile mobile; I have no fucking clue. SI.com reports:
A Costa Mesa patrol officer attempted to pull Jackson over after he was seen weaving in and out of traffic with a flat front left tire, according to a release issued by the Costa Mesa Police Department. Jackson, 30, continued driving to avoid being stopped. Losing control of the truck, Jackson drove up onto a sidewalk. He continued on, colliding with a vehicle in an intersection and running several red lights.
Eventually, the truck came to a stop and Jackson, originally of Memphis, Tenn., was arrested without incident at gunpoint.
I'm going to assume that, somewhere after he hopped a curb then ran a couple of red lights, the following thought went through Rampage Jackson's head: "And my face is on the car isn't it? Super duper. Should've gone with Mr. T punching a tiger, Rampage. Oh, wow, that's a gun."
Jul 27 2007Lindsay Lohan blames the black guy
TMZ has interviews with three men Lindsay Lohan allegedly took hostage during the wild car chase that led to her DUI arrest Tuesday morning. The three men were invited to a Malibu party by Lindsay because they were friends with her former assistant's boyfriend, but ended up involved in the car chase when Lindsay decided to borrow their car. After Lindsay's former assistant told her she quit, Lindsay started "raging" and jumped in their car which they were waiting to leave in. As she started driving, one of the passengers jumped out scared and she ran over his foot. They say Lindsay was driving 100 mph and when she caught up with the assistant she began doing circles on PCH around the assistant's car, at one point saying, "I can't get in trouble. I'm a celebrity. I can do whatever the fuck I want." One of the passengers says he tried to grab the wheel, but Lindsay responded, "If you touch me I'll sue you." TMZ reports:
Dante realized the mother was driving to the police station and warned Lindsay if she didn't stop she'd get in hot water. He says Lindsay responded, "I'm a celebrity. I'm not going to get in trouble."The two cars stopped in a parking lot near the cop shop. When police arrived, Dante says it seemed as if Lindsay told officers, "I wasn't driving. The black kid was driving."
Dante and Jakon say they saw Lindsay flunk the field sobriety test. They say when she tried touching her nose, she almost fell over.
I want to believe these clowns - man, do I want to - but their story sounds ridiculous and I'm pretty sure they won't be receiving their Mensa memberships anytime soon. I'm surprised they didn't say Lindsay was chasing the car on foot and waving a machine gun over her head.
