SFist Blotter

More like SFist Blotto today! A Gilroy High School post-prom party this weekend got a little out of hand, and culminated in a senior falling off a third floor balcony at the Monterey Best Western hotel. Fret not, folks -- just like in the cartoons, she landed on an awning, which is credited for saving her life. The cops came by the hotel two more times that evening, once on a complaint of public drunkenness, and the other to arrest two guys doing $3200 of damage to the ice machine.

In other alcohol-related news, a bartender and a waitress at Noe's Bar and Grill caught a guy slipping some kind of drug into his date's drink. They whisked the drink away, claiming it was bad, and then saw him do it again as they were waiting for the cops. When the guy finally noticed them, he mumbled something about "dirty glasses," offered to buy the bartender and waitress drinks, and then fled the scene in his BMW convertible.

And finally: the inebriated baseball fan who threw his beer on pudgy Jason Giambi at Saturday's A's/Yankees game has been charged with battery, public intoxication, and throwing stuff on the field. Giambi, in a showing of good sportsmanship, has declined to press charges, but the DA makes the final decision. The fan, who's the son of Lafayette mayor Carl Anduri (!!), wasn't the only poorly-behaving A's fan this weekend -- the next day, two guys jumped onto the field. One was caught by Eric Byrnes; the other, wearing a diaper and no shirt, was caught by security.
