Josh Brolin had himself one of “those” nights Friday evening and unfortunately for him, most of it was caught on cell phone video.
The first clip comes courtesy of some guy sitting in a cab at a Del Taco drive thru in Los Angeles. The person shooting the video told TMZ that Brolin had rear-ended the cab he was in.
When the driver got out and tried to swap insurance info with Brolin, the star of No Country For Old Men went off on the cabbie arguing that there was only a minor scratch. The cab driver kindly disagreed and that’s when Brolin got belligerent, telling the cabbie “you suck as a cab driver” and accusing him of milking him for money.
Brolin was said to have driven off after the cab cleared the way in the drive-thru lane. No police report was filed.
The second bit of footage from Brolin’s Friday night rollin’ comes after he had his fill at O’Briens Irish Pub in Santa Monica. It was last call but Brolin was “that guy” that night and wasn’t ready to leave. The bouncer managed to get Josh outside and that’s when the really drunk 45-year-old did his best to try and fight the bouncer.
The actor flailed his arms around but didn’t really do any damage and it was at this point when the bouncer made a move that should earn him a star on the Hollywood bar-employee walk of fame (if that existed). You can hear him inform Brolin that the two were just hugging it out and wouldn’t ya’ know, the Gangster Squad star was all about that, as he moved in for a big ol’ bear hug!
After the man love, the bouncer even tried his best to hail a cab for Josh as the two are seen in the street together (let’s hope that the cab driver from earlier wasn’t on the scene) but the clip ends with Brolin attempting to run away into the California night.
Brolin was previously arrested for public intoxication on New Year’s Day in Santa Monica. He and actress-wife Diane Lane filed for divorce in February.
