I guess we can be thankful these two didn't kill anybody but themselves.

The Jacobsons had been participating in a charity ride with dozens of other officers to benefit a police victims assistance counselor who has multiple sclerosis. The last stop on the charity ride was at the Cedars Bar and Grill on Texas 71 in Spicewood.

This is all over the radio here.

The 'charity ride' was apparently a 'poker run'. Out at the lake, they have these 'events' where you boat from bar to bar, getting a playing card (and a few drinks) at each bar. Then, at the end of the day, at the last place, the person with the best 'poker hand' gets some kind of prize.

And they arrested the bartender at the *last* bar these folks were at!

This does say a *lot* about DUI laws. The law expects the bar/bar owner to be responsible for these folks' drunken-ness. Even tho a room full of law officers didn't do, say or try anything.

It's an interesting story, without a doubt.
