Musburger pays fine for drinking beer in vehicle
November 21, 2005
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) -- ABC sportscaster Brent Musburger had a pretty expensive beer.
He was charged with drinking it in a moving vehicle, and paid a $144 fine. Musburger was a passenger in the vehicle.
The 66-year-old Musburger was cited Sept. 17 outside Memorial Stadium after calling Nebraska's game against Pittsburgh. He was one of several people cited for similar alcohol offenses that Saturday, police said.
According to records from the Lincoln city attorney's office, Musburger paid the fine on Oct. 20 rather than show up in court. He was fined $50 for the open container of alcohol, $50 for drinking from it and $44 in court costs.
Efforts to reach Musburger through ABC Sports were unsuccessful. An ABC spokesman in New York did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
How does the law deal with open containers and motor homes or RVs? If he was riding in the back seat of the Madden mobile would he have had to pay the same fine?
