Hazing In The NFL: Eagles Rookie Stuck With Outrageous Dinner Tab
Lane Johnson, the Philadelphia Eagles’ 4th overall pick in 2013, “voluntarily” picked up the dinner tab for his fellow offensive linemen on Friday night at Philadelphia’s upscale Del Frisco’s Steakhouse.
He tweeted a photo of the check.

The total: $17,847.86, gratuity included. And here’s a better look at the itemized dinner tab:
Now I’m dying to know what a $275 shot of Remy Martin Louis XIII tastes like and if I should expect to reach full climax soon after taking it. My favorite item on this receipt is easily the $3,495 bottle of Screaming Eagle Cabernet that someone snuck in while ordering dessert, right there between the cheesecake and bread pudding–a “fuck you” bottle of wine that equals a month’s take-home in the average American household.
It wasn’t hazing, though, because Johnson paid for it voluntarily…
For those of you so concerned with MY business, I am grateful to be able to treat my O-line to such a great evening VOLUNTARILY!

10 years ago at 9:36 pmWhat kind of Classless piece of shit tries to brag about how much money he can spend on dinner then tells people to stay out of his business when he post it on twitter.

The school would hold an investigation, the newspapers would write articles and it could possibly be detrimental to the fraternity. Happens to the NFL or any sports team it’s just all good ol’ fashion fun. Which it should be! But the hypocrisy geared towards fraternities just drives me nuts.

10 years ago at 3:35 amIt’s not really rookie hazing, when he’s technically in his second season in the NFL.

10 years ago at 8:42 amDorn, Louis Tre is pretty damn good. Everyone should try it at least once.
10 years ago at 9:38 amHe’s not a rookie. He’s a second year player, just the youngest member of the O-line.
