Alabama 'Teabagger' Brian Downing sentenced to two years for Bourbon Street Prank
He’s known to most people as the ‘Bama Teabagger, but his name is Brian Downing and he’s 33 years old.
It was video shot on a cell phone camera that got him into trouble after Alabama beat LSU in the BCS Championship game in the Superdome last January. Downing was videoed in the dining area of Krystal Burger on Bourbon Street exposing his private parts and pressing them against the neck of a passed-out Tigers fan.
The video quickly went viral and Downing quickly found himself indicted on the very serious charge of sexual battery. His attorney cut a plea deal with prosecutors, however, and last month Downing admitted to the two lesser charges of obscenity.
