Michigan AG admits to drinking to the point of being sick during a college football tailgate
Fox News
Dana Nessel, the Democratic attorney general in Michigan, admitted in a statement that she drank too much alcohol on an empty stomach during a tailgate before a college football game last month and required assistance to leave the stadium.
"I laid low for a while, but my friends recommended that I leave so as to prevent me from vomiting on any of my constituents," she said, posting a photo of herself holding her head while seated in the stands. She said she left early and was assisted as she walked out. Someone used a wheelchair to make sure that she could safely make it back to her car, she said. She said she was driven home by a designated driver.
Nessel said her staff said that she'd benefit from hiring a crisis management company to help her navigate what she called "TAILGATE-GATE," but she wanted to speak directly to her constituents.
