Living right next to Lake Travis, I can attest to the fact that 6 times in one year is extreme. I have a lot of friends who boat every weekend out there who have never been checked.

That being said, they usually don't have 15 people on their boat and act like fools, which he may or may not have been. I would think if he was really checked that many times in a year there may be a reason why other than he is a rich, NFL star.

Now...as for police and law enforcement around this area, I have seen first hand how they treat folks they think are intoxicated and operating any kind of motorized vehicle or boat. They don't mess around if they think you are lit. I came up on a wreck on 620 (which runs along side of Lake Travis) this past fall. The lady who was driving one of the vehicles was looked at by the paramedics and refused to go to the hospital to be checked. Once she refused, she was promptly given a field sobriety test in bare feet, then handcuffed and taken away.

The cops around here don't play when it comes to drinking and driving anything.

I heard that he was in Devil's Cove, which is one of the biggest party spots on the lake and gets a lot of attention at times from the Sheriff's department.
