Old, but still funny as hell. Even though he was a failclown it is sad!

The incident occurred at the Peachtree Tavern in Atlanta’s Buckhead community.

Atlanta police spokesman Otis Redmond said an off-duty officer working security at the nightclub alerted police.

Police said that Anderson was caught snorting cocaine in a bathroom stall. The arresting officer said he saw Anderson and another man snorting the drug off the toilet bowl.

Authorities said they also found a suspected marijuana cigarette in Anderson’s pocket.

Investigators said Anderson was accompanied by Mark Hudson, who was also arrested.

Both men were taken to Fulton County jail.

Anderson was charged with possession of cocaine and marijuana.

He has a court date set for 11 a.m. Monday.

Anderson is perhaps best known for the celebratory "Dirty Bird" dance he and other players did after touchdowns.

Anderson helped the Atlanta Falcons go to the Super Bowl in 1998. The Falcons lost to the Denver Broncos in the Super Bowl that season.

Former Falcons coach Dan Reeves told WSB-TV Channel 2 that he was disappointed by Anderson's arrest.

Anderson left the team in 2001 after hurting his knee and later became an NFL analyst for ESPN.

When asked about Anderson's arrest, ESPN e-mailed WSB-TV Channel 2 the following statement: "We just learned of this situation, and it is not appropriate for us to comment until we have more information."

Dirty Bird, more like Dirty Terd.

I tried really hard to think of a joke, but doing drugs in Nola ain't any classier. I think most of us have seen some f'ed up stuff in our fair city.

Now that's what I call keeping your nose clean! (Insert exaggerated 1950's commercial voice guy.)

Hmmm, ol' Jamal mighta' been smarter than we think by staying away from the sinks & the light switches, ...

Yeah but the idea of sticking your nose directly on something that strangers put their bare necessities on is much more gross, lol.

Yep, last thing I want to do in a public crapper is get my face closer to the bowl but upon further review, I guess that's proper "coke" etiquette in the clubs, #shrug ... it is a wacky world out there with the rich & famous, .

It sure is, buddy. It sure is.

I always thought the best part of not being a coke addict was just being healthy and not in prison. But knowing that putting my nose on a toilet seat won't be the best part of my day makes me smile a little harder on the inside. And it also keeps me from going clinically insane, as I have a long history of OCD, especially as it relates to public bathrooms.
