It must have been the most awkwardly tense drive of the 44-year-old&#8217;s life, though, because he didn&#8217;t actually have tickets for them. His plan was already set in motion, though, and played out on Monday, when he showed up to a police station with some scrapes and bruises and reported that two men (one black and one Hispanic, of course) had mugged him and stolen his Oprah tickets.<\/p>\n<p>The police were immediately suspicious, because a) why would two middle-aged men care about an Oprah taping, and b) how would they even know he HAD tickets? It didn&#8217;t take much more questioning to figure out that Spearing never had tickets, and he faked the mugging (and scraped him<em>self <\/em>up) to avoid having to tell his wife he didn&#8217;t get them tickets.<\/p>\n<p>He was charged with felony disorderly conduct for filing a false police report and spent the night in jail, after which he was bailed out by a &#8220;relative,&#8221; (note: not his wife).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reason #22,780 not to get married:<\/strong> your wife might have your balls in such a vice that you&#8217;d rather commit a felony and beat your head against a rock than make her mad.
