He Was Just Baptizing The Bar

I don't think they should have given him a ticket. He was just spreading the word by Baptizing the bar.

A Baylor University assistant football coach was cited early Sunday after he allegedly urinated on the bar at Scruffy Murphy’s, a Waco bar frequented by Baylor students.

 

Waco Police Department spokesman Steve Anderson said that Eric Schnupp, Baylor’s offensive line/tight ends coach, was issued a citation at 2:20 a.m. for disorderly conduct-reckless exposure, a misdemeanor.

 

Danny Severe, a bartender at Scruffy Murphy’s, 1226 Speight Ave., said the incident happened around closing time as employees were getting people out of the bar.

 

Schnupp had been drinking for a couple hours, Severe said, when an employee saw Schnupp urinating on one end of the bar. Police officers were already at the bar for an unrelated incident, Severe said.

 

“While we were kicking everybody out, he apparently thought that nobody was looking and whipped it out and (urinated) on the bar,” Severe said. “He tried to deny it, but there was definitely a puddle and there was no one else around him.”

 

Severe said that Schnupp got a ride home after police issued the citation.

 

Schnupp is in his first year as part of Baylor’s coaching staff. He played at the University of Miami from 1995-2000 and previously coached at West Texas A&M University.

 

Baylor athletics director Ian McCaw said on Monday afternoon that he and head football coach Guy Morriss are discussing whether or not Schnupp will face any penalties from the school.

 

Assistant athletics director Nick Joos said Monday morning that Baylor coaches and officials were not aware of the incident before the Tribune-Herald called for comment.

 

On Saturday afternoon, Schnupp traveled with the Baylor football team to Lawrence, Kan., where the Bears were defeated by the Jayhawks, 58-10.
