He's not a bad kid. This crap happens to all kinds of people. He was back in his college town with one of his old teammates. I can just imagine how the night went for him being how he's in the NFL now. That's a huge deal for a kid from a school like Northern Iowa. I actually found it kind of funny because I've been to that bar he got arrested at. I use to party a lot in Cedar Falls back in my college days.

Come on... you can be honest with us.... Did you ever get tasered there?

No, but I wasn't basically a celebrity on campus either. When you're drunk and popular you feel like you should be able to get away with anything. I have seen plenty of other people get arrested at bars though. God knows there were plenty of times I could have been arrested.
I don't think this moment defines Hall. I still think he's a decent guy and football player.

+1 He's 22 years old and did a real dumb thing. I did a lot of stupid stuff when I was that young and drinking too much. Sometimes I think it is a miracle I'm still alive. Seriously.

Yep. A could weeks after I turned 21 I was arrested for a DUI. Spent the night in jail. Learned my lesson.

I have 2 college age kids. Whenever they do something dumb and I'm upset, I think back to my time when I was that age and I calm down. My brother and I were pretty wild... and he died at an early age. The alcohol drinking sure didn't help either one of us. I ended up a police officer. He ended up spending a lot of his life in jail. He was a good guy... actually a better guy than me. Really cared about people and was always doing good for others. In the end the alcohol got him and he literally drank himself to death. I know that's off-topic, but being stupid is a thing people do. Especially young people. I hope Hall learns from this and does better.
I've done enough dumb stuff that should have ended with my arrest when I was in college and just out...thankfully the police were never around at those particular times. In fact our football team got a in huge brawl that had traffic stopped right outside a bar...strangely enough no cops were around even though they used to drive up and down that street all night...weird how things work out sometimes. LOL
We all did. I was in a fraternity prank where a young cop ended up pointing a shaky gun at my face. Didn't end in an arrest when the whole story got told, but probably the only thing that saved me from having to clean shit out of my pants was that I was drunk and didn't grasp the full meaning of how close I was to a bullet to the head. And yeah, I also spend a night in jail during my college days for DUI. Only thing is I always have a way of adding stupid to stupid and one of the arresting officers was a woman. Of course, being as drunk as I was, I was pretty persistent at trying to pick her up. I remember her kind of smiling and going with it. Her male partner was not as amused. As drunk as I was, if I remembered that, he must really not have liked it so I'm lucky he didn't take me into his car and work me over a little.
I agree... I did so much during college that I should not have survived, but here I am. There must still not be enough stupid in the world because God let me live so I can spread some more :-)
EDIT: Hell, I remember being so drunk and driving on Lake Shore drive and only awoke when my left tires went up on the center part separating the lanes. A week or so later I went by there and I swear the curb was about 6" tall. How I got up there while speeding and not killing myself or anyone else is still a mystery. As is how I ever got back to my dorm.
