Hahaha trust me I wish I could have the recipe, I would make that shit all the time myself. But I don't plan on ever not being with my wife so I'm not gonna complain if she wants to make it for me.
The limit is an automatic presumption you're too intoxicated. Getting a DUI below the limit is discretionary and hard to prove
ElectricBlanketFire already doubted Tom Brady. I eliminated everyone he knows and loves. The Boss taking a shot is farther down the road.
Hilarious and petty at the same time, I love itYup (=
I certainly tried to tell 'em. Then some folks got aggressively personal and insulting. Not sure why.
Oh, speaking of which: where's ElectricBlanketFire?
I've got some major crow for you to eat for decrying me as a crackpot yesterday when I said this was possibly bogus (=
That dude is rude and dismissive of anyone who finds themselves on the other side of his opinions. It was merely another Tuesday for him.
I really don't have a dog in this fight except that 'AHA, THE BOSS only blew a .02, its exactly as I guessed because THE BOSS would never do this!' is an extremely funny internet W.
Whenever you get owned online just smugly post about not caring being above it all why do you care so much
Anyway I live by a rule to never say bad about Springsteen even if that jeep thing almost made me regret tha TV rule

Obvious outcome. Such a BS charge to begin with. Dude blew a .02. Not sure why they didn't initially just fine him for public drinking and be done with it.
That first page is now a "yikes" graveyard to me, haha.
Hot takes > reading the room.
Tripwire-Stone, might be worth updating the OP/title to reflect the dismissal.

This whole thing is bullshit. Why even fucking make up charges??
Have him pay the fine for shit he actually did wrong and move along.

There's this mindset that we all gotta outdo each other in our initial reactions without considering anything else in these stories because for some reason, giving people (within reason) the benefit of the doubt is a terrible thing to some.
When you get pulled over in a situation like this, they will throw everything at you they can. That way they have charges to drop as bargaining chips when the person goes to make a plea deal.
And so the saga ends. DUI charges dropped, and a fine for drinking at the park. https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/24/entertainment/bruce-springsteen-charges-plead/index.html

This. A thousand times this.
We're pretty much in the dark on this one, but my assumption all along (since page 1 of this thread) was that there was a political grudge.
This happened in November right after Trump lost the election. Bruce is not only an outspoken Trump critic, he literally did Biden ads. November-January was basically the boiling-over point for a lot of right-wing folks in the USA. Bruce has put out strong words in his music criticizing racist police actions, too.
This is admittedly complete speculation, but ffs... he had a 0.02 BAC.
unfucking believable.
This is one of those stories that you remember the outrage and the initial story, but almost nobody remembers or knows about the correction. The initial story is page 1, the correction is page 6.
This is why the internet / social media is terrible. Everyone is constantly showing their vindictive side, but no one wants to collect on being wrong / jumping the gun. And its net is making society a lot worse and each of us less trusting of one another.
the idea that something like this can be left up to a cop's discretion in some states is fucking ridiculous.
It's more that this board contains a lot of self righteous people. Cancel culture doesn't exist, but overreacting to shit without thinking it through absolutely does, and it's prevalent here.
