Colts Punter Pat McAfee Enjoys St. Patty's Day, Pokes Fun At His Suspension

by Brad Wells on Mar 17, 2011 5:28 PM EDT in 2011 Colts News

Pat McAfee is a fun-loving, carefree guy.

This is who he is. It's part of his charm. It's why so many people, including myself, like him.

However, there are times when Pat probably goes a bit too far over the line. Like, for example, when he got so stinking drunk last October that he decided to take a dip in the Broad Ripple Canal at around 4:00am in the morning. It's a stunt that almost got him killed (swimming in near freezing water while dehydrated from intoxication is like pouring gasoline all over your body and daring a friend to light a cigarette for you).

It's also a stunt that got him arrested, charged, and suspended for one game by the team.

Now, five months later, Pat seems to have a sense of humor about the whole thing. In fact, he's back out on the town, celebrating St. Patrick's Day, in the back of the so-called 'Chicken Limo,' pimping some tee-shirts that we would definitely buy a few hundred dozen of.

Here's Pat tweeting his adventures.

Riding in the back of the @ChickenLimo to the @ScottyShow1009 http://t.co/EdY3MCl

For those of you wondering what the 'Chicken Limo' is, this is from the limo service's Twitter page:

Party Limo service in Indiana. You can get Clucked Up while you get chauffeured around in the most Crispy Limo in the world.

And while there is nothing wrong with Pat riding in a Chicken Limo drinking what looks to be a Guiness on St. Patty's Day, we sincerely hope that Pat doesn't do anything to foolish like, say, try and swim in this river anytime soon.

Be safe today, Pat. Be safe everyone. Happy St. Patty's Day.

Laugh Away....

But not at your drunken exploits, but at your kicking, post ban. Yep, it was a joke.

I think soaking yourself in gasoline and lighting a match is a bit more dangerous than getting wasted and jumping in a canal! But i see your point, i think

Wish i ran into Pat last night, id love to tank beers with that guy!!

Indeed. I like Pat but his kicking has been more sub-par every game. It seems he gets worst every game. I no problem with him drinking in a chicken limo at least he is not driving. I know some of us need to relax and let our hair down, but it seems like the team’s conduct has been worst since Dungy left. Caldwell did a very good job holding the team together this year. But I am questioning our leadership from our coaching staff.

Pat is the MAN!

Pat McAfee isn’t Hunter Smith. He’s Pat McAfee, had a pretty good first season, and he was doing just FINE until his little swimming incident (LOL). And he was able to shake it off and laugh about it now, he’s probably feeling bad after that incident, but I think he’ll be better next season, whenever that is. If I was Pat, I’d try out for the MLS like Ochocinco. He played soccer at West Virginia, totally got that off Wikipedia, but he needs to stay in shape.

drank w/our special teams coach sat night...

Not a Guinness

That’s actually a cup from a local pizza joint, HotBox Pizza, that doesn’t have a liquor license (there’s even one in Broad Ripple half a block from where he went swimming). His friend, however…
