Drunk High School Basketball Coach Arrested on St. Patty’s Day for Kicking in Door of House That Wasn’t His Mom’s

A lot of people drink alcohol.

And people who like to drink, tend to drink even more on St. Patrick’s Day.

And, not surprisingly, some of the people who drink a little too much on St. Patrick’s Day are high school basketball coaches.

What is surprising, is that someone hired to be the head coach at Elyria Catholic High School (OH) would get so drunk on St. Patrick’s Day that he would try to kick down the door of his mother’s house to get in at about 3:20 am.

Only coach Phil “One For the Road” Kuctha was allegedly NOT at his mother’s house pounding on the door. He was actually a couple of blocks away at some other old lady’s house. Naturally, the scared woman called police who promptly came and arrested him for criminal damaging and disorderly conduct.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Video: Devils and Rangers Start Game With Fights – March 19, 2012

And the NHL wonders why it can’t attract a wider audience.

Look, you can argue that fighting is part of the sport until you’re blue in the face, but only a limited audience really want to see this kind of activity on a regular basis. You fight in basketball, you get ejected. You fight in baseball, you get ejected. You fight in football, you get ejected. You fight in hockey, they make you rest for a couple of minutes and encourage you to go back out on the ice and fight some more.

And to start the game this way? Yeah, families will come in droves for that.

Central Florida Football Player Arrested for Punching Cop During St. Patrick’s Day Party – JJ Worton

The luck of the Irish ran out for University of Central Florida football coach George O’Leary when one of his players decided to take a swing at a cop . . . twice.

According to police reports, the fun with J.J. Worton, a redshirt freshman who led the Knights in receiving last season, during a block party outside a bar. For some reason, a deputy asked Worton to leave the area, and when he refused, the football player took a swing at him, missed and then took off running.

Cops chased him and allegedly found Worton hiding under a car.  They dragged him out, tried to arrest him but he resisted and tried to punch another officer. This time he succeeded. And you know how cops like to be punched by drunks! So they pepper sprayed Worton, arrested him, and now O’Leary has suspended the star player from spring ball.
