Kiefer Sutherland may have a drinking problem
Kiefer Sutherland shocked staffers at the Ye Rustic Inn in Los Feliz, Calif., the other morning when he walked up to the bar around 9 a.m. demanding to start a tab. Sutherland looked "rail-thin" when he entered the tiny dive bar with a group of rowdy pals and ordered a round of drinks. According to witnesses, when presented with the bill, Sutherland claimed his wallet was "indisposed" - "It's been stolen! I promise I'll come back and pay." At that point, things got weird.
"He started to go into a series of karate kicks in the middle of the floor while the bartender, waitress and several customers looked on," a source reports. Thankfully, a star-struck fan agreed to buy him several J&B's on the rocks. After devouring a plate of chicken wings and littering the floor with bones, the star left without tipping.
Kiefer Sutherland is starting to become my personal hero. He's one of the few people who's actually more entertaining when they're not on television - whether it's drunken karate kicks or attacking Christmas trees. Hell, he should just start another show, something called 24 beers. His mission would be to save Kiefer from sobriety. It'd basically just be him sitting at a bar drinking one beer per hour till he attacks the dartboard. Emmys all the way.

did he really "shock" staffers, or did he act exactly how they expected him to?

I never did like that ugly talentless Fug. If I had to pack that face around I'd be a drunk too.

He's KEIFER SUTHERLAND.........World's First Drunk Superhero! Can attack rogue Christmas trees, karate chop an unsuspecting waitress and leap tall barstools with a single bound! Keifer has most certainly walked away with the "Most Embarassing Drunk Celebrity" title, leaving Tara Reid crying in her Appletini.

"24 Beers"...LOL! Good one.
All jokes aside, I hope he cleans up his act a little.

I was thinking the same thing. The name 24 has an entirely new meaning now.
- Kiefer Sutherland stars in 24 Hours of Sobriety
- 24 steps to Sutherland
Kiefer walks into a bar and reads a sign that is hanging over the bar.
"FREE BEER! FREE BEER FOR THE PERSON WHO CAN PASS THE TEST!"
So Kiefer asks the bartender what the test is.
The Bartender replies:
"Well, first you have to drink that whole gallon of pepper tequila at once and you can't make a face while doing it.
Second, there's an alligator out back with a sore tooth. You have to remove it with your bare hands.
Third, there is a woman upstairs who has never had an orgasm. You got to be a man and give it her".
Kiefer says:
"As much as I would love free beer, I won't do it. You have to be nuts to drink a gallon of pepper tequila and then do the other things".
As time goes on Kiefer has chugged a few and finally decides to ask "Wherez zat teeqeelah?"
So like the hero he is he grabs the gallon of tequilla with both hands, downs it with a big slurp and tears start streaming down his face. Next he staggers out back and soon all the people inside hear the most frightening roaring and thumping and all of a sudden it was dead silence.
Kiefer staggers back into the bar, his shirt ripped and scratches all over his body.
"Now" Kiefer says "Where's that woman with the sore tooth?"
LOL. :D

I have discarded the Pope, my father, and Mother Theresa as my heroes. Keifer Sutherland has now become my favorite human being on the planet. Fucking up Christmas trees, throwing half-eaten chicken wings on the floor, raping a goat- I DON'T CARE. I thought drinking J&B at 9:00 am was a problem only I dealt with. Thanks Kiefer, for letting me know I'm not alone in the world. You're the real American Idol. Fuck Fantasia.

ok i'll admit that i wanted to fuck him back in high school soley based on his performance and looks (mainly the spikey hair-evil glare look) in "lost boys". the exact look in the accompanying pic to this article.
i'd still fuck him.

That? Is awesome. Wish I could have been there to see it. But hasn't this "drinking problem" been going on for awhile now? One of my brothers was stationed in Japan a little over ten years ago and played pool with Sutherland--he was a drunken fool then, too, according to my brother. But then again, my brother is a drunken fool and it could have been some nobody claiming he was Keifer Sutherland...you know, like Emilio Estevez.

This guy sucks...villian of Christmas trees...christ he was over when he played David in "The Lost Boys." He should die a death like he did in "Flatliners."

Some bars open at 6:00 a.m. for a reason...

Gosh hope it's a typo and they meant 9 pm.
9 am has a bad sound to it.
Kiefer blow off the steam but take good care.
Just like the guy. He's got such a great show that 24.

LOL. Kiefer is my hero. Definitely my fave post, and especially Shaun's comment--too funny! Gives a whole new perspective to 24.

Love that picture from Lost Boys-BEST MOVIE EVER!

Kiefer's motto: "It's five o'clock somewhere."

"24 Beers" - I can get behind that show.
Personally, I like the fact that he littered the floor with chichen bones. There's something kinda voodoo about that...in a smelly sticky-fingered drunk kind of way.

When a star who is on a hit series and has been for years has no money....well that just reminds me of that old song "I'm blowing all the money I earned acting on "24" on coke and other drugs" I forgot who sings it, but this reminds me of that song.

Breaking Sutherland? I'm excited for the scene in his reality show where he drinks 4 shots of vodka poured into a half gallon of cranberry juice while sitting on a curb for no apparent reason.

LMAO at #17

I luv Kiefer no matter what. It's funny cause when he does interviews he seems really boring. Forget 24 and gives us 24 reasons to watch Kiefer, the reality show!!

Be easy on Kiefer...he's just living up to his Canuck roots---we all love to party! Yee haw

That's as surprising as GW hating Brokeback
23. Posted by beautifulatrocities on January 26, 2006 02:45 PM
9AM? Why does this not surprise me? Next he'll be jonesing with Anne Heche

Fighting with Christmas trees, trying to karate kick the hired help, drinking at 9 a.m......Go Kiefer!
Follow that trail of chicken bones!

...and I was post *24* ! Even better! :D

Saying he might have a drinking problem is like saying Paris Hilton might have an STD or 2

Freaking Keifer is at it again? Seen him on Letterman talking about attacking the christmas tree....LOL....apparently the passing of Mr. Miyagi was not taken lightly...hence the karate moves and early morning drunken stupor.
28. Posted by HollyJ on January 26, 2006 05:41 PM
You'd think that even the most starry-eyed fan would snap out of the stupor when confronted by Keif's karate chop impressions. How can you admire that ?
29. Posted by sorelymistaken on January 26, 2006 05:51 PM
Holy crap. I got a look at the photo with this story as I was taking a drink of coffee and almost spit all over my laptop.
Lost Boys... hilarious!

I wish I could witness a Kiefer drunken mess. Sounds like it's pretty entertaining.
31. Posted by Elkanah5730 on January 27, 2006 02:31 AM
yeah, he's spilled more than one drink on me... and on my friends. still, don't hate on keifer! i'll throw back drinks with him any time (day or night). man, that fool can DRINK!
32. Posted by Lynette Carrington on January 27, 2006 06:43 AM
Can I rent Keifer for my next party? I'll even set up a Christmas tree in my house....
33. Posted by gossipmonger on January 27, 2006 09:38 AM
I'd PAY to see him and Russell Crowe party it up one night together...
34. Posted by HollyJ on January 27, 2006 11:51 AM
@33 I can see it now: A drunken Keifer stumbling around in a hotel lobby trying to use his fake karate skills to evade crushing head blows from the phone in Crowe's hand.

Like father, like son. My late father-in-law used to hang out with Donald Sutherland in Nova Scotia (decades ago). They were both heavy drinkers. Donald's nickname at the time was "Suds". Have another beer, eh!
Cheers!

Talk about a one man band -- this stuff is worthy of rockers-we-know-and-love. Sounds like a wicked mid-life issue to me. Entertaining, though.

I LOVE KIEFER SUTHERLAND! He is probably the sexiest man alive, and one of the best actors around. This, along with the Christmas tree incident have made me love him even more. I must admit, however, that I did enjoy comment #5. I wish I could run into him anywhere, even drunk!
