LAS VEGAS -- Police seized $81,020 in cash belonging to Tennessee Titans Adam "Pacman" Jones, which they said sparked a melee and a triple shooting at a strip club over the weekend, court documents show.

Jones was showering more than 40 strippers onstage at Minxx Gentlemen's Club & Lounge early Monday with the cash "intended as a visual effect," according to a search warrant. But a scuffle broke out when the Houston promoter who hired the strippers told them to pick the money up.

The promoter, identified as Chris Mitchell, owner of "Harlem Knights," and a male associate took a plastic trash bag containing Jones' money and walked out the front door, the warrant says. Police recovered the money and two Breitling watches inside a safe at Mitchell's hotel room Monday morning.

Wow. Talk about an over-reaction, pulling a gun out and all. If you are showering strippers with 80 grand in cash, you gotta expect some leakage. It's the price of doing business!

In other news, I want to be a professional athlete. Maybe not necessarily so I could shower 40 strippers with 80 thousand bucks, but it would be nice to know I could do it if I wanted to.
