Faced with probation revocation, Pat Mahomes Sr. admits John Rocker squabble was staged
Pat Mahomes Sr., the father of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, created a bit of a stir when video emerged of a squabble with former baseball player John Rocker on Bourbon Street in New Orleans. The problem for the elder Mahomes is that he's currently on probation after a third DWI. The fight arguably violated the terms of his limited freedom. Unless it wasn't an actual fight. Via Mahomes Sr. told a court last week that the fight was a staged promotion for an April boxing match with Rocker at Barstool's Rough N' Rowdy. The contract, Mahomes Sr. showed the court, was signed on January 17. While it kept Mahomes Sr. out of jail, it exposes the whole thing as a ruse aimed at hyping the fight. Mahomes Sr. is due to make at least $85,000 for the fight. He could get more depending on the pay-per-view numbers. And the phony fight on Bourbon Street was part of the effort to bump the numbers. If the fake altercation didn't present Mahomes with the prospect of real incarceration, the official word would still be that the falsified confrontation was legitimate and genuine.

NFL Star Patrick Mahomes' Dad Gets Another Infraction On His Rap Sheet From Super Bowl Weekend
Patrick Mahomes' dad, Patrick Mahomes Sr., seems to have bitten more than he can chew with the law and now might have to bear the consequences! The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback's dad has been ordered to wear an alcohol monitoring bracelet days after he got into a brawl during the Super Bowl weekend. Last February, Patrick Mahomes Sr. was picked up by the police for driving under the influence of alcohol for a third time or more during the Super Bowl weekend. On Super Bowl weekend, the athlete's father reportedly exchanged words with former MLB pitcher John Rocker in New Orleans. Following Mahomes Sr.'s poor conduct, a Texas District Attorney urged a judge to order the NFL star's dad to wear an alcohol monitoring bracelet. Details from the court document obtained by In Touch show that a District Attorney in Smith County, Texas, along with a community supervisor officer, filed the request on February 13. "Patrick Mahomes … due to the defendant's extensive travel outside of Smith County for sports events, it's requested the defendant have an additional portable alcohol monitoring device when he's not using his vehicle," the District Attorney wrote. The D.A. and community supervisor also asked that the new condition be added to Patrick Sr.'s sentence. The filing read: "At your own expense, immediately submit to the SCRAM Bracelet Alcohol Monitoring Program, directed by your Supervision Officer, and continue use of said device until released by the court." The District Attorney and Community Supervisor also instructed that there should be no "attempt to remove, circumvent or tamper with the monitoring unit or any associated equipment and follow all rules and regulations of said monitoring program." Mahomes Sr.'s new offense comes a little over a year after he was pulled over by the cops for driving while drunk during the last Super Bowl. Mahomes Sr. cannot seem to stay out of trouble. During his DUI arrest last February, the body cam footage showed him telling the officer: "I'm supposed to be going to the Super Bowl to watch my son play football, and this is what we're doing?" The football star's dad reportedly got out on a $100,000 bond following his 2024 arrest. Mahomes Sr. was also previously detained on a DWI second or more charge in 2019 and was sentenced to 40 days in jail. That was not the end of it; by August 2024, Mahomes Sr. reportedly pleaded guilty to a felony driving while intoxicated charge. His attorney, Joseph D. Murphy, claimed that Mahomes Jr.'s dad had entered a written plea deal agreement with local authorities. Murphy added: "Our client is now living a sober life, and we believe that the steps he has taken to better his life have helped us negotiate a plea recommendation for probation." Following his arrest, Mahomes Sr. reportedly agreed to a five-year probation with close supervision for the first 12 months to ensure he is sticking to the terms of his deal. Mahomes Sr.'s October arrest earned him 10 days in jail. The Blast confirmed that he was booked into the Smith County Jail at 4:53 pm on Monday, October 21, 2024. His expected release date was slated for October 31, 2024. The former athlete's criminal records in Texas have existed for nearly 15 years with his mugshots as an active part of his criminal backlogs. In 2016, during a football game between TCU and Texas Tech, Patrick Mahomes Sr. faced charges of public intoxication. Two years later, in 2018, he was sentenced to 40 days in county jail after a previous DWI arrest. During his February 2024 arrest, the athlete's dad reportedly tried to use his son's status to escape arrest. In his words: "My son is getting ready to play in the f-cking Super Bowl, OK? Just listen to me. I am not drunk. I promise you. I've had some drinks. But he can't have this right now. Listen, this can't happen … Patrick Mahomes." The NFL athlete seems to be the only one with a clean record in his family. His little brother was dragged to court for inappropriate sexual conduct with a woman identified as Aspen Vaughn in 2023. The social media influencer was reportedly at Vaughn's Restaurant and Lounge in Kansas City when he pushed a waiter who wanted to enter the room he was in. He eventually pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor battery charge and received a sentence of 120 days in jail, along with six months of probation. The NFL player's younger siblings previously got three felony charges for aggravated sexual battery against him dismissed two months before his sentencing. He reportedly grabbed a woman by the neck and kissed her forcefully in a park in Kansas in February 2023. Will Patrick Mahomes Sr. stay off alcohol and brawls with this new development in his sentencing?

Watch: John Rocker, Patrick Mahomes Sr. Bourbon street altercation
Former MLB pitcher John Rocker and Patrick Mahomes Sr., father of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, were involved in a physical altercation on Bourbon Street ahead of Super Bowl 59. A video circulating on social media Tuesday shows Rocker approaching Mahomes Sr., seemingly attempting to start a conversation before Mahomes Sr. pulled away and began yelling. The situation quickly escalated before the two were separated. Rocker later addressed the incident on social media, posting: 'This [expletive] loser can't take a damn joke. Wish I laid him out right there and ruined his [expletive] weekend even more.' The exact cause of the confrontation remains unclear, but Rocker had posted several tweets criticizing Mahomes Jr. in the days leading up to the Super Bowl. On Jan. 27, he tweeted: 'Patrick Mahomes [expletive] sucks,' followed by other derogatory remarks, including a suggestive comment about Mahomes and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. Speculation has also arisen that the altercation may have been staged to promote an exhibition boxing match between the two at Barstool Sports' 'Rough N' Rowdy' event. While Barstool founder Dave Portnoy confirmed last week that a fight is planned, contracts have yet to be finalized. Regardless of the circumstances, the viral footage and ongoing social media exchanges between Rocker and Mahomes Sr. have only fueled public interest in their feud.

Pat Mahomes Sr. claims he was victimized by social media hack after perceived Bills insult
Pat Mahomes Sr., the father of two-time NFL MVP Patrick Mahomes, is back in the spotlight. The elder Mahomes contends he was not responsible for a recent comment posted to his social media account, which appeared to reference the Buffalo Bills. "Today is a great day to not be from Buffalo," Mahomes Sr.'s X account said after the Kansas City Chiefs' victory over the Bills in Sunday's AFC championship game. The former MLB pitcher later took to his Instagram account to try and clear the air by asserting he was the victim of a social media hack. "Haven't been on Twitter/X in years," Mahomes Sr. wrote. "My account was hacked and I do not have access to it. Pls disregard any tweets from @pmahomes." He added another statement to his Instagram account. "Attention: Patrick Mahomes Sr.'s X account has been compromised," the Instagram post said. "The Mahomes family holds the utmost respect for the Buffalo Bills organization and the #BillsMafia fan base. We are actively working to resolve this issue. Thank you for your understanding." Mahomes Sr. also offered an apology in an Instagram story post, writing, "Sorry for the misunderstanding. Would never." The account in question appears to have been moderately active over the past several months after an extended period of virtually no posts dating back to December 2022. The account has shared about six posts since June 2024. It was unclear whether any of the six most recent posts were compromised. Some of the account's previous posts reference MLB icon Willie Mays. The baseball legend died at the age of 93 in June. The social media page also features pictures of the elder Mahomes wearing his Minnesota Twins jersey and the Chiefs quarterback when he was a baby. This is not the first time Mahomes Sr. has made headlines. In August 2024, he pleaded guilty to a charge of driving while intoxicated and was sentenced to five years probation. Tyler, Texas, news station KLTV reported that Mahomes Sr. would have to continue attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings as a condition of the deal. He also had to serve 10 days in jail. Police footage obtained by TMZ last year showed Pat Mahomes Sr. pleading with officers and mentioning his son's name multiple times during a February 2024 arrest. "Can I say one thing?" Mahomes Sr. said. "My son is getting ready to play in the f---ing Super Bowl." Follow Fox News Digital's sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
