Nope. This wasn’t a scene from Hangover IV.
But it sure looked like it.
And just like in the Hangover, the family says he was drugged.
Things unfolded late Sunday when Long Islander Brian Danilczyk allegedly attacked a one-legged man in Vegas, then reportedly bolted to another casino and stripped naked before dashing off to Harrah’s Hotel and Casino, where he is accused of dancing and gyrating nude on a poker table.
The bizarre rampage happened during a bachelor party about 11:22 p.m., police said, with the West Babylon man allegedly slugging the differently abled man at the Bird Bar in the Flamingo Hotel, according to multiple reports.
The tourist then allegedly fled out onto the strip and ran into The LINQ Hotel and Experience, which is where he took off all of his clothes, police said. Danilczyk’s widely reported naked frolic ended when casino security officers yanked him down from a live poker table at Harrah’s, police said.
The scene at Harrah’s was captured on cell phone video and is featured below in the TMZ and New York Post reports posted on YouTube.
Danilczyk’s family has said in news reports that his strange behavior was the product of someone spiking his drink with a psychedelic drug. Specifically, his wife and father told the New York Post, it occurred very soon after he and friends guzzled down a round of Irish Car Bombs, which involves shots of Irish whiskey and Irish cream dropped into a half-pint of Guinness stout.
“I will start by saying that we are good people and my husband is a great person. He would NEVER act in such a way,” his wife, Michele Danilczyk, said in a text message to the newspaper on Tuesday. “He is the victim.”
Danilczyk faces disorderly conduct, battery, and indecent exposure charges.
