What's the dumbest thing you've ever done while drinking? Chances are, no matter how dumb it was, it wasn't anywhere near as dumb as what Philadelphia Flyers star Claude Giroux allegedly did last night.

According to reports out of Canada, Giroux was arrested late Tuesday night after he was involved in an incident with a police officer in Ottawa. Those reports indicate that Giroux was arrested after "repeatedly grabbing the buttocks of a male police officer." And while police in Ottawa haven't commented on exactly what happened just yet, Giroux was—no surprise—reportedly found to be intoxicated when he was arrested.

We don't know what would possess Giroux to do what he allegedly did. But what a thing to have on your police record, right?

Oh, and as you would probably expect, Twitter is already having a field day with this story:
