Well I Could Have Told You He Loves Nuts
So all week long there was story after story about how the police in Oakland, Ontario had pulled over David Lee Roth for speeding, only to find that he was about to die from an allergic reaction to some nuts he ate. The policemen rushed him to a hospital and saved his life. The world was focused on how they saved a legend.
The thing is, none of it is true. David Lee Roth hasn't even been in Ontario this year. He did spend three days in Quebec earlier in the month, but never got behind the wheel of a car, and said that he never drives when he is on tour.
Oh, and he said the only thing he is allergic to is criticism. No food allergies. So, then who in the hell did the police stop in Oakland? Is there actually a constable in Ontario named Chris Thompson who was interviewed by local media and who passed along the story.
Here is what Constable Chris had to say about the stranger: "The guy stuck out like a sore thumb. He was wearing a little silk scarf and flashy clothing - it's not something you see in Oakland too often."
Maybe it was Sammy Hagar. It makes sense, because as you know, he can't drive 55.
