College football player suspended for chugging beer on top of a moving bus

BEFORE THE GAME TOO!

James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

Georgia Southern defensive tackle Gavin Adcock has been suspended by the team indefinitely after he was caught on video surfing on top of the team bus and chugging a beer thrown to him ... before the game.

Adcock, whose team photo looks exactly like someone who would chug a beer on top of a moving bus, was getting ready for a game against Louisiana on Sunday when he thought it would be a good idea to climb on top of a moving bus. Showing peerless judgement, he then caught a beer from a fan, and downed it to cheers from the crowd.

Georgia Southern would go on to lose 28-20, with the team’s head coach fired shortly after.

Chugging a beer in your college jersey is a bold decision. Doing it before the game is a foolish choice. Doing all this on top of a moving bus is mind-boggling. If it wasn’t so reckless and dangerous I might be able to appreciate this, but nah, this is just too dumb.

Adcock took to Twitter to apologize shortly after his suspension was announced.

College is all about learning. Most of the time it’s in the classroom, but sometimes we all need a reminder that drinking on top of a moving bus is a bad idea.
