Actor and playwright Sam Shepard was arrested early this morning in Bloomington, Illinois and charged with speeding and drunken driving, according to Reuters. In an article posted today Shepard, 65, told police in Normal, Illinois, he was passing through town and stopped at a tavern before heading to his hotel. Must have been some hot girls there. He didn’t just have one or two drinks, his blood alcohol was twice the legal limit. To help get noticed he was cruising 16mph over the speed limit. Trust me Sam, that will do it every time! Shepard received an Oscar nomination for his portrayal of test pilot Chuck Yeager in the film “The Right Stuff.” He also appeared in “The Notebook,” “Blackhawk Down” and other films. His plays include “Buried Child,” for which he won the 1979 Pulitzer Prize for drama, “True West” and “A Lie of the Mind.”
