So the bar story is correct surely there must be something on video as well. What we don’t know is which version of it is closer to the truth, meaning:
1) original tweet indicated that the girl thought she was hooking up with a football player. She later found out it wasn’t a football player and felt violated
2) post in the last couple pages of the original thread indicated that the girl thought the act was committed by a football player but wasn’t sure, and later identified TSJ as the person
Obviously 2) is much worse if she immediately reported it because she felt violated and simply did not know who the person was and assumed it was a football player. At the same time, why wasn’t there a big scene in the bar if she was not okay with what was going on? Later decided she wasn’t okay with it? I would think being in a public place with lots of people around would be the place to get someone to stop an unwanted advance.
Certainly the fingering in a bar is less common, but two college kids drunk in a bar getting touchy feely with each other happens constantly in campus bars. The lesser of the two charges could probably be applied to 90% of boys that have ever entered a bar and stepped foot on a dance floor while drunk with drunk girls also on the dance floor if the girl has a change of heart afterwards… at least that seemed to be the case from 13-17 years ago when I was frequenting a few campus establishments.
I’m not saying any of this is good, healthy, or that if the woman did not consent to it that it is okay. I’m just saying that something close to this scene is happens several times a night between two drunks in a bar based on my what witnessed during my college experience.
