Royals Pitcher Arrested For DUI After (Allegedly) Passing Out At 7 P.M. In Burger King Drive-Thru
The Kansas City Royals’ season really couldn’t be going much worse. Despite an underwhelming 64-66 record, the team has currently been shut out in 43 straight innings, the longest laughable streak in franchise history and a mere five innings away from a new MLB record that nobody wants to own. If that wasn’t enough, the team received news on Tuesday that their star pitcher, Danny Duffy — already on the disabled list — was arrested for suspicion of DUI after allegedly passing out in a Burger King drive-thru. Yikes.
Oof. I love some good drunk food as much as the next guy, but Burger King? Come on. You’re a World Series-winning pitcher. DUIs are embarrassing enough for a star athlete; Getting busted at the BK Lounge just adds to it. You’re better than that. Have some respect and get the JBox tacos. Shit. Also, don’t drink and drive, moron.
I think it won’t be long before someone releases cell phone footage of the arrest. Judging by how many WorldStar vids are filmed at BKs, McDonalds, White Castles, and more around the nation, I can guarantee someone popped out their iPhone when they noticed the Royals pitcher getting the business. Apparently in Kansas you don’t automatically get locked up for DUIs, and Duffy was picked up by a friend.
Did I mention that like all of the Royals’ core players are set to be free agents after this year? It’s a tough time to be rocking those powder blue jerseys..

7 years ago at 7:00 amWelllll Fuck. As a sad sack Royals fan it’s time to honor a long standing Royals tradition. Get fall down drunk and convince myself the Chiefs won’t let me down in a similar fashion.
7 years ago at 3:49 pm1 back at the break we and made some good trades. Thought we had a fucking chance but they look like they’re back in early 2000’s form lately.
7 years ago at 5:38 pmMy fellow KC brethren…I raise a drink to you. The Royals run is over and we’ll be washing away “what could have been” on a cold winter night when the Chiefs fail to advance in the playoffs again. May sports God have mercy on our people.
