Mad Men star Jon Hamm Charged With Hazing During Uni Days

'Mad Men’ star Jon Hamm took part in a violent initiation ceremony, or hazing, at the University of Texas which led to criminal charges, court records have shown.

The actor had not previously been linked publicly to a lawsuit filed by a member of a fraternity who claimed he was severely beaten, dragged by a hammer and had his trousers set alight.

The 1991 lawsuit said Hamm participated “till the very end”.

Criminal records show the now 44-year-old was charged with hazing and received deferred adjudication, which under Texas law means he had to successfully complete probation but was never convicted.'

Just like England’s public schools.

Something about sticking an aubergine in the lad’s ear. His hearing has been effected ever since.

That’s some serious yellow journalism even for the UK. A quarter of a century ago in college an actor participated in group #$%&^& activities, in what world is that actually news.

During Uni Days.....

Ugh....we are not England or Australia. Besides we are going back 25 years to dig up something on Jon Hamm just when his show is done. Weird.

Who really cares what a shooting-star actor did in his fraternity days a quarter of a century ago? Is some urinalist somewhere crowing because he got the inside scoop on this non-story?
