Here's something you don't see everyday one of Roger's Sportsnet up and coming reporter Shawn McKenzie ended up in jail after a altercation in a bar in Nashville owned by county music star Jason Aldean.

It was first reported by 'Scoop Nashville' that McKenzie was very tipsy and was trying to argue with bar staff who say be was removed for ''acting rudely''.

McKenzie had purchased a table and was extremely intoxicated and was asked to leave by bar staff but McKenzie refused and wouldn't leave until the Police came McKenzie then agreed to leave the premises on his own.

But for y'all that have drank before you know what happens next. After the police left McKenzie would return to the bar and began arguing with staff again. So the bar would call the police again and this time McKenzie was taken to jail.

So after sleeping it off McKenzie would bail out of jail but likely realized his Sportsnet career is over but good news is he could try to be part if they make the Hangover four
