Hey Andrew, what were you thinking?
NBC4 in Los Angeles caught Lakers star Andrew Bynum parking his BMW in two handicapped parking spots.
An LADOT parking official took the photos at the Bristol Farms Market in Playa del Rey. Check them out.

“It’s a terrible image and perception when something like this happens,” Department of Motor Vehicles Deputy Chief Vito Scattaglia told NBC4. “That does infuriate me, because there are those people that truly need that space.”
NBC4 tried to talk to the 23-year-old, uninjured Bynum about parking in the handicapped spaces. He slammed his car door and drove off without comment. Now that’s arrogant!

Let’s cut to the chase. Bynum is a 7-foot tall athlete who is obviously in great shape and who makes $14 million a year.
He’s had knee injuries in the past, but the guy isn’t hurt and he’s not in a wheelchair or on crutches.
He needs to be parking in the regular parking spots just like the rest of us. A celebrity athlete parking in not one, but two handicapped spaces is a stupid thing to do.


Give me a break!

I agree. BITCH move. Not to mention look at all the open spaces in the background.

As small as it may seem...this doesn't give him any positive marks on a GM's checklist, especially after coming off the cheap shot in the playoffs. His trade value is slipping further down the chart.

handicap parking abuse happens everyday.

the only reason its even a story now is because an athlete did it.

I think Bynum has proven himself to be a douche but I'm not worried about this story. The pictures don't show he ever took off from his car and was likely just there to load shit up. It's not really polite but it's not a big deal.

We know this. But as a wannabe hoop star/celeb it makes it even more douchie, because he has to know someone is going to notice.
Get it? He sticks out like a sore thumb and still has the nerve to do it. Arrogant, piece of shit, douche bag.
