New York Yankees pitching phenom Joba Chamberlain was arrested in October 2008 for drunk driving. The athlete pleaded guilty in April 2009 to a DUI charge and was placed on probation for nine months and had his driver's license suspended for 60 days. After Chamberlain was pulled over for speeding in Lincoln, Nebraska, a state trooper noticed an open bottle of Crown Royal whiskey on the front passenger seat of the BMW the ballplayer was driving. After failing a pair of field sobriety tests, Chamberlain took a Breathalyzer test, which showed his blood alcohol content was .134, above the state's .08 limit.
