I imagine the store owner has another Rashomon version of this: four drunken rowdy tourists show up at your gas station at dawn and demand to use your bathroom. You try, through the language barrier, to explain it is for customers only. They walk outside, piss on your building, then one them starts yanking things off…

This is the third time I type this.

Let’s deal with facts here. There is no clear evidence he was drunk. He may have just been his usual asshole self.

Lochte is all of us when we were teens and / or in college for the 1st few years... Except he’s

Lochte tore up a gas station and somehow *he* is the victim? GTFO. Getting a gun pulled on you for something like that isn’t just a third world thing. Try that at an inner-city convenience store here in the US. Lochte’s lucky he didn’t get shot.

Hell no, he isn’t. I don’t go into a foreign country and act a fool. I respect the people, customs, land (inlcuding property) and culture. Maybe he is you.

The answer about why he vandalized a sign: He’s apparently an asshole drunk.

And I’m sure the guards were simply collecting the money to repair the sign. Either way Lochte is an idiot.

So it sounds like neither Lochte or Bentz may be lying. They just have different interpretations of what actually transpired. You say Potato, and I say Portiéltüzerachmíshñ.
