Having read around the Web this weekend about Chris Kyle, I think the general consensus, with which I agree, is that this story, among others, was a complete fabrication and have no supporting evidence in police records or elsewhere.
I loved the movie, but it is clear that, in addition to being a top sniper, Kyle was also the master of tall tales. Ask Jesse Ventura about that.
I’ll take Chris Kyle over Jesse Ventura any day ... :-) ...
“Kyle was also the master of tall tales. Ask Jesse Ventura about that.”
Of course Jesse “The Fake-SEAL Wussy” Ventura knows about tall tales, he’s told a number of them.
