Icon24 David Hasselhoff wasn't drunk, claims he had ear infection

The former 'Baywatch' star claims rumors he was taken to Encino Hospital by paramedics because of a heavy drinking session are untrue and says he was taken unwell after mixing two medications.

Some of my regulars (I'm a bartender) do refer to me as "Doctor" are you telling me that the AMA doesn't recognize the medical opinion of of social drinkers looking for a reason not to go home to the significant other?
