'got too drunk and couldnt handle it', happens everyday lol anyway i think he'll get away with a small fine and warning, maybe get free food for a day or two

great way to celebrate your win- be arrested, take some quality time with yourself in prison...really romantic...its hard when such a lump of cash come from the sky so unexpected- probably that changed his life, so its understandable..good luck to him i guess
