Here’s “Floribama Shore” star Kirk Medas pulling the ol’ don’t-you-know-who-I-am? card on cops during his arrest down in Georgia … and it backfires in spectacular fashion.
Kirk was arrested for disorderly conduct this month in Woodstock, GA … and he tried to tout his celebrity status as he was being hauled off in handcuffs.
Kirk yells, “I’m on a TV show by the way,” as cops slap on a pair of cuffs and curious bystanders laugh as they try to figure out exactly what the hell he’s famous for.
Kirk ain’t lying … dude was a regular on the “Jersey Shore” spin-off … but it seems he doesn’t really know his audience. The bystanders definitely didn’t know him.
As for the arrest … cops say they were responding to a call regarding a drunk and disorderly male, later identified as Kirk, who had been kicked outta Pure Taqueria.
Police say bar staff told Kirk he had to hit the road after he threw up, and that’s when he allegedly became belligerent. Medas was cited for misdemeanor disorderly conduct.
In the video, you hear bystanders saying cops have their guns trained on Kirk … but the cops say they just pulled out tasers.
Bad publicity is good publicity … maybe you’ll be recognized next time, Kirk.
