Recently, a story emerged of Paul Bissonnette being jumped by multiple men at an Arizona bar, and now the podcaster has told the entire story.
On Monday, the NHL world was shook when it was revealed that Paul Bissonnette, popular media personality was jumped by several men at an Arizona bar, with reports that he had been hospitalized.
Many fans were worried about his condition after this happened, with his Barstool Sports boss Dave Portnoy also worried, with that worry being eased in classic Biz fashion.
Despite the scary incident, Bissonnette appeared to be very positive when he offered fans an update on social media, looking much better than one would expect after hearing the story.
Now, on the latest episode of Spittin' Chiclets, he has told all, and it's a long, shocking story.
"Crazy night. Still trying to process it all."
"I go to this place called Houston's... I go there about 3 or 4 times a week. Majority of the time I'm just by myself and I sit at the bar. It was packed in there so I went and waited and put my name in for a seat. I've gotten to know the staff pretty well and the manager and the assistant manager were all running court, trying to organize everything and give everyone what they need. Eventually I get called up to go to a seat, and I'm putting in an order and all of a sudden you could just hear a commotion at the bar area."
"So I look over and there's a gentleman in a red golf shirt along with about 9 other guys and he's being asked to leave... by the assistant manager. And this guy is just screaming in his face... and the whole restaurant is looking over like, 'what is happening?' Luckily that guy ended up leaving the restaurant... then the main manager is trying to calm these guys down and explain that if you don't have a seat in this area, you can't drink. You can see that it starts escalating. So this gentlemen in a lime green golf shirt starts putting his finger in the manager's face and backing him up into the bar and I'm kind of starting to look around and nobody's really getting up to do anything. This is a commotion with 9 golfers who are drunker than maggots and creating a scene and obviously don't like being told, 'No.' Like they wanna get a drink, they want it now and they ain't leaving without a fight."
"So I get up and I go over. And I grab the guy's arm and I say, 'Listen buddy, if you keep harassing and assaulting the staff here we're gonna go outside and we're gonna have problems.' And the moment that left my mouth the guy beside him starts throwing punches. And then next thing you know there was about 4 guys swinging at me. So we're in the middle of the bar area and we are just throwing. I'm eating punches, I get pushed against the bar, my shirt gets ripped off."
"I didn't want to get cornered, I wanted to be able to continue to back out... so we're all of a sudden now in the parking lot and they keep coming. They get me down and they're throwing punches, I'm able to get back up and I lose my shoe. I'm taking some and I'm giving some. I would say about the entire time there was about 5 - 7 of them... and I kept having to back pedal. If you go down then all of a sudden they're boot-fucking ya and you're done."
"We kind of rounded the corner and the bald gentleman who originally threw the first punch makes a bee-line and sprints past all the guys coming at me and I catch him with a nice right and buckled him. I was very, very, VERY, VERY happy about that but that seemed to re-ignite them. I make my way around the dumpster and four of them got me on the ground. If you get caught on the ground and they start kicking you in the head and if you go unconscious then you don't know what the consequences are. I ate three kicks, one in the neck, two in the head. Was able to get up and now at this point I have no shoes on... no shirt."
"So, I'm finally able to run into a CVS and they didn't come in the CVS... by the time the altercation was done they were able to book five of these guys and get them in jail. I'll get their names and this is gonna be a thing. I'll go after every single one of those fucks."
"I think the whole ordeal probably took about 3 or 3 and a half minutes, give or take 30 seconds. I just want to thank all the police officers, the ambulance and firemen who came over and helped me out and kind of got me back to normal to at least get home to sleep late in the night. Yeah, I was fucked up."
"Like I said, they got the five... there's one guy who's still out there. Thankful that they got it all on surveillance. But, I'm so fired up right now that I would be willing to waive every single charge if I could go behind a fucking barn somewhere and go 'em 1 v 1. Every fucking guy. One after another. I'm going to what I can to ruin these guys' lives. They're fucking assholes and I kind of want my vengeance at this point. Maybe things will change once I calm down."

From start to finish it was a wild story of Bissonnette simply looking to calm things down with a group of drunk golfers who were abusing their wait staff at the bar, before escalating quickly.
To finish his story, Bissonnette confirmed that he'll now legally be going after each and every single one, but given the high spirits that he's in, it's safe to say that the former NHLer gave as good as he got.
