You can call me a sentimental fool, but some wedding traditions just get me all choked up.
The first dance. Cutting the cake. The ceremonial handcuffing of the father of the bride.
Some may disagree, but in my book, a marriage isn't truly consummated until the proud papa gets put in the squad car. And if a major-league pitcher and a FEMA coordinator go along for the ride? Well that's just more Mazel Tovs to go around.
Astros pitcher Brandon Backe was among 10 people arrested this weekend during a brawl with police at a wedding reception at a Galveston hotel bar.
No details about the cause of the altercation were immediately available, leaving us to conclude that it was a bouquet toss gone horribly, horribly wrong.
