Nittany Lion mascot issued citation for public drunkenness

August 31, 2010 1:36pm EDT

The Nittany Lion mascot, Clint T. Gyory, was issued citations charging him with underage drinking, public drunkenness and criminal mischief for incidents that occurred early the morning of Aug. 1, the day after his 20th birthday.

The citations, filed by State College police on Aug. 20, say that at about 3 a.m. on Aug. 1 in the 200 block of East Fairmount Avenue, Gyory was under the influence of alcohol to the degree he endangered himself, others or property.

In particular, the citation says he broke a rearview mirror off of a vehicle and took it, and “was intoxicated to the point that he crawled into the bed of a pickup truck and passed out.”

According to the citations, a breathalyzer test measured his blood-alcohol content at .187.  If found guilty of the charges, Gyory would pay fines totaling more than $1,000.

More details will be provided as they become available.
