Plax Stripped of Dignity Before Shooting

Posted Dec 11th 2008 4:30AM by TMZ Staff

Hours before he acted like an idiot by shooting himself, Plaxico Burress was acting like an animal in a New York jiggle joint.

Burress went to Head Quarters with teammates Antonio Pierce and Ahmad Bradshaw, and according to the New York Post, gobbled up the staff's dinner, including eating turkey with his hands. He and his guys came in with three girls, with whom they also left.

As it happens, Burress is known there for being "cheap" and "full of himself."

4. And this behavior should surprize no one. Too bad he didn't aim higher.

6. I personally take the side of Plax on both of these issues. We are less than one year from the home invasion of a Redskin star resulting in his murder, we are less than months away from another football star shot as an innocent bystander, we are less than weeks away from a teammate who had a gun pulled to his head. We have a nation of rednecks running to gun shops becuase these stupid arse bigots think Obama is going to take their guns away, yet a man that carries a gun to protect himself and his celebrity had an accident. I dont find it stupid. Careless maybe, but not stupid.

Furthermore, some celbrities tip 50%. Good forthem. But I know food service workers that expect their mortgages to be paid simply becuase they bring a celebrity an etr roll and a few drinks with extra shots of Grey Goose. The hell with them. If they want more money, go to med school, go to law school, kill their rich grandparents, or work enough in their youth to make the NFL. White it is proper to "tip" it certainly is not an obligation, especially when bar and club owners are falling over themselves to get celebrities to come to their establishment. The tip is a highly paid athlete patronized the place you work, making it more popular. Deal with it!

7. I'm going to take a wild guess that none of the 3 girls that came with them and left with them was Mrs. Burress?

8. Plax eats at the Cheesecake Factory in Wayne, NJ often. Cheap as hell ($10 on $200+)

9. Nat Turner you want to do him, don't you? He is a piece of sh!t and it shows -- no one has a good thing to say about the guy. And yes, someone making in excess of 30 Million for a few years of work should be a generous tipper, especially since without the fans, he would have been in jail a lot sooner than now.

10. He needs a few years in prison. . . he can eat with his hands all day long, but he's going to have to learn how to swallow too. . . then he won't be "full of himself" any more, he'll be full of his cell mate's junk.

11. What the hell is wrong with these people? Seriously.

12. nat is right to a point. I do see why he would want to carry a gun and dont blame him one bit. I do blame him for not knowing how to use one, being to lazy to get it registerd, and for the love of god a holster would have been great to have. But as far as thinking he needs to carry a gun, i do belive he has good reason. and i think at least 80% of nfl players probably do carry

13. I feel that the place and area that Plaxico Burress was going maybe he felt he needed protection. I have known lots of celebrities who got jacked for their money and jewlery. So the mistake I think he made was not registering the gun. Because trust and believe he is not the only one who carries and unregistered gun around. Saynig that, the law of New York is what it is you cannot be above the law just because your pockets are fatter than ordinary people, although thats the way it is. ingnorance or laziness is not an excuse. This country is making a statement that no one is above the law. Just ask Martha. I don't think he will do all the time but yeah for sure he will do some. As far as his problems on the field maybe he wants out of New York? This is his way of getting out of the situation.
