'Breaking Bad' House I'm the One Who Knocks ... Down the Listing Price!!!

Published

'Better Call' a realtor! The house from "Breaking Bad" went on sale last year for $4 million, but after over a year on the market ... you can now own it for only $400K!

BACK ON THE SCENE???

Lamar Odom is already back out on the Vegas scene just one week after his DUI arrest.

The former NBA champ was spotted Saturday night at C3 Lounge just off the Vegas Strip, appearing relaxed as cocktail waitresses served drinks nearby. We're told Odom wasn't drinking and was simply hanging out and chatting with friends.

We broke the story ... Odom was arrested last Sunday after cops say he was clocked going 106 MPH in a black SUV around 2 AM. Officers claim the vehicle sped past their cruiser before swerving between lanes, at times failing to signal.

When police finally pulled Odom over, they say his eyes were bloodshot and watery and there was an "overwhelming odor of marijuana" coming from the car. Odom told officers he hadn't been drinking and initially denied smoking weed, later admitting he had smoked "hours, hours earlier" around 4 PM.
