Who's he with?

Didn't look like anybody was with him. The other people seemed to be passer-bys.

So was he drinking or doing drugs alone in his office? That's a very sad picture if it was true.

Sigh ... RoFo's last St. Patrick's day as mayor. Surely he'll miss these state occasions.

Joking aside, does anyone recognize who Ford was with?

I think most of those people were passers-by who were already talking to him when the car pulled up. No one was close to him when he was getting into the cab. Maybe one person was someone who was there with him. would be nice if one of those many people came forward, as they were talking to him for longer than the kid taking the video.

Why, oh why would someone, a mother in this case, find an, obviously drunk, Rob Ford...awesome? What kind of a person thinks his behaviour is acceptable or attractive? He's the Mayor of Toronto for gawds sake. He's a father of two small kids and he's out on the town getting sloshed.

"Mayor I love you" "we would vote for you if we could" and then shocked that he's a boorish prick. Take him back to Mississauga with you. Stupid cow.

Oh no! He swore!

Good god, some people... I bet the Mississauga mother is fine with him hanging out with gun traffickers and driving drunk, but god forbid he swears in front of a bloody teenager.

What was our mayor doing drunk/high/wasted out of his mind outside his office again, is the question.

 

[requiem]

He was "working" except that he was wearing a beaded necklace...private City Hall party again?

Drunk? Note his right hand movements at 1:03 in the video. Does alcohol do that to you? Or crack?

"Tremors or hyperactivity may be noticed as the hands tremble or the person's legs or arms twitch or are in constant movement."

Seems I see a lot of crack addicts on the downtown streets making similar hand movements.

I didn't think he was alone because he said something like ... 'WE need a cab to get home''.

I agree that he didn't seem to have a large entourage - and most people came across him randomly. I bet there's more video from a different perspective out there.

What was he swearing about? It sounded like he was warning someone to not run in front of the cars... which would make sense in the context.

He seemed less intoxicated than in past videos... And somewhat jovial. Seemed *just* drunk or on weed, IMO.

(Just my observations... Not to be taken as 'Hey, he's not as drunk - and not taking drugs, so wtg Rob!)

I guess it's time to play another round of "Guess What the Mayor Is On Today"

 

[penelope_sch]

The temperature was minus brutal last night. I would be shaking too if I was dressed like him! (again, not to minimize any of this... I just don't see *this* particular video in the same way as I did most of the previous ones).

 

[tiffer24]

Our gutter mayor doesn't seem to hear the laughter at his expense near the end of the clip... nor is he all that coherent.

I've seen the uncensored Ford video now. He yells (loud voice) "SOMETHING SOMETHING SOMETHING" (quieter voice) "ya fuckin' idiot."

(He doesn't actually say "something." I mean that I don't understand what he's saying. Carry on.)

That's not a tremor. He's making the phone sign.
His behaviour in this video is rather tame by his standards, but that outburst at 1:17 is typical of drunken idiocy.

Looks to me like some of the guys were getting in the cab with Ford....

I wonder who these guys are. They look a bit young to be hanging out with Ford at the office.

Maybe they were standing there waiting for a cab themselves and Ford showed up and asked if he could get a ride with them?
