With Paul Pierce’s recent Las Vegas handcuffing, as well as a Patriots off-season that saw two guys get busted for pot and another found with enough Oxycontin’s to sedate this guy, we decided to look back on five of our favorite funny, embarrassing and sometimes both off-field incidents in recent Boston history.

*1991: Celtics center Robert Parish is arrested when the cops intercept two ounces off pot that had been Fed Exed to his house.

Can’t you picture The Chief sitting around with his buddies on the couch, ripping bong hits and just rewinding the video of him punching out Laimbeer over and over?

"Dude! Let’s watch it in slo-mo this time!"

The best part of this arrest is that Parish was freed after paying only a $37 fine.

Getty Images*Nov. ‘97: While onstage during an Everclear concert at the Paradise, Drew Bledsoe stage dives into the crowd, lands on a woman and eventually pays her a reported 400K in the settlement—she’s since hired Mo Lewis as a personal bodyguard.

In a perfect world, I’d like to think Drew made this fateful leap to escape Everclear’s sweet SoCal sounds, but it appears he’s actually one of their biggest fans. Perhaps the funniest/most disturbing part of the story is that the incident happened only days before the Pats were heading to Tampa for one of the most crucial games of the year. The Pats ended up getting destroyed, but Bledsoe made it clear to everyone that the incident would not effect his play—he completed 13 of his 27 passes for 117 yards and threw two beautiful interceptions to compliment his zero TD passes.
