Lets break down this legendary night from Edelman, Paul Pierce, Danny Amendola and more. 

New York Post “Technically it was a citizen’s citation arrest,” Edelman said about the incident, which occurred in Jan. 2020. “I mean you can’t even hood slide anymore, ‘Starsky and Hutch’ hood slide. I mean, Paul was right there.”  “That was the weakest hood slide ever,” said Pierce, who was a guest on the podcast. “You didn’t even make it off. You like stood and stopped in the middle. I was like, ‘Ah, nah.'”  “It was my jeans,” he said. 

“There was no slide, there was too much friction… Me, wearing straight jeans, go over there and I kind of stuck. Home boy gets out of [the] car, waves down a cop, they start hemming me up.

“Paul is over there. Paul had my back though. He’s like, ‘Nah get off. He didn’t do sh-t.”

This crew was out to celebrate Danny Amendola's retirement and it ended up with Edelman getting arrested for vandalizing a vehicle. The fact is that it was Edelman just trying to slide across the hood while Paul Pierce is laughing at him on how dog shit the slide was. I don't think I would leave the house eve again if Paul Pierce said "Ah, nah" after I tried to do something cool. I do think if I did a hood slide right now I would be successful, but Edelman would still fuck up because he is a little heavy these days.

After reading this article it made me even happier that these athletes are just like us. You make fun of your friends but when it comes down to it they always have your back. It is even funnier that Julian would ever think that jeans would ever work on a hood slide. I actually don't know if hood slides actually work because they probably grease it up in the movies. To also do a hood slide while a person is in the car means they just had a lot of tequila. If I saw them outside my car and do that I would ask him to do it again and let me take a video.

Paul Pierce was right though, in the article he said if Julian just landed the slide they would have been completely okay. But they were also stuck in the restaurant for 2 hours because of a robbery so they were drinking for those two hours. You can definitely tell by this video and again it is just how you hang out with your boys.  

All in all this seemed like an amazing night and was probably blown out of proportion by the media even though the boys were just fucking around. If he wore sweatpants that night we would have never known about this night but this was probably one of the funniest ways you can get arrested.
