Stay out of jail on Super Bowl Sunday

Now that is a superb idea! Yes with Super Bowl Sunday around the corner we want you to be careful and not go to jail. While there will be tons of celebrations and parties, 33rd Street Bail Bonds wants you to be aware that the combination of alcohol, excitement and possible flaring tempers all can be a bad combination.

Many people will attend a party at a local bar. This is a fun way to be with a group of people and root for your team. Unfortunately, alcohol often gets in the way of good judgement and causes people to lose control. Fists can fly when two people get in an argument over a ref’s call, an accidental touch, or feeling that they or their dates have been slighted or harassed. Being in a bar fight can result in being arrested and charged with assault and/or assault and battery. Charges for assault and/or battery can range from being charged with a misdemeanor to a felony depending on the situation. Penalties can range from fines to imprisonment depending on the specific charge and degree of charge.

Another common violation that people face during a Super Bowl game is being charged with an open container offense. Leaving a party and taking an open container that has any type of alcohol in it could result in an offense. This includes having an open container of alcohol and walking out of a bar or club with it. Even worse is having an open container in a vehicle. Both drivers and passengers can be charged. Also, a driver can be ticketed even if the open container in the vehicle belongs to a passenger. An open container is anything that you can drink alcohol from or that has a broken seal. This includes: cups, cans, flasks, jars, and bottles. A re-corked bottle of wine or empty liquor bottle are also considered an open container. The charge for this offense could result in a misdemeanor charge. The penalty is a fine, possible jail time, and you could possibly have points put on your license.

Of course, if you leave a party and get behind the wheel after consuming too much alcohol, then you could be charged with a DUI. This is a serious crime and results in harsh penalties and charges. The charges will vary depending on how many times you have been charged with a DUI and vary from revoked licenses, fines, and jail time. 33rd Street Bail Bonds highly encourages you to not drink and drive and have a designated driver.
