SFist Blotter

More hijinks at the Lusty Lady, and this time, not union-related! A Cal football player has been suspended from the team after he got in a fight with a bouncer at the famed feminist strip club. Last weekend, the player allegedly entered into a video booth while his friend (whom the player called his "agent," even though the player's not currently represented) demanded they be given two prostitutes. When they were denied, Lusty Lady reps say the player became violent and called the bouncer a racially-derogatory name as well as a homophobic one. (We know, we're being so coy.) Some of the fight was caught on a security camera. The Berkeley athletic department is investigating, but the football player says, "[The bouncer] tried to portray me as someone who’s racist, I'm not. Tried to portray me as someone who’s egotistical, I'm not."

Next up: we've been looking on Houstonist for something about this too, but indie/pop blog Stereogum passed along a report that Adam Stephens, a member of the local band Two Gallants, was tasered in the stomach at the band's Houston show, by a cop responding to a noise complaint. Also tasered: a "slender 14 year old with shoulder-length hair" and a sociology student from the University of Houston, who was writing a paper on the local music scene. Here's the fans' side of the story. Two Gallants will be back in town this weekend at the Bottom of the Hill, so get your pepper spray ready, indie rock fans! (Obligatory YouTube postings of the fracas here, though the one of the actual tasering has since been taken down.)

And finally, remember the unfortunate incident with the angry Pop Ya Collar store owner who shot a lady and then his store got set on fire? Well, the owner's been assaulted in jail, and the SFPD caught the arsonist. Turns out the arsonist had been interviewed on CBS 5 about the arson, where he said "stuff like that ain't never going to be over," and "Whoever done this here, that was small." Here's the clip if you want to watch it yourself (the arsonist is near the end).
