Frank Sinatra Jr. Strikes Again

Mr. Dilettante - Fri, 09/03/2010 - 05:04
It's yet another round of that ever-popular game, use the politician's kid as a weapon against the politician:

Republican gubernatorial candidate Tom Emmer said Thursday his 20-year-old son made a serious mistake when he was cited for under-age drinking in July, and that the family is dealing with it seriously.

Tom Emmer Jr., who goes by the nickname Tripp, pled guilty to the misdemeanor citation and was fined $100, plus $85 in court fees. The case came to light Thursday in a City Pages article, which included Facebook photo's of Tripp Emmer holding beer cans and bottles at parties last year.

Ooh, can't have that! Two observations:

  • I'll only start to worry about this if Tripp Emmer starts hanging around with the Hatch girls; and
  • Will the first person on the City Pages staff who refrained from drinking before the age of 21 please pick up the white courtesy phone?
