Colts owner Jim Irsay was recently the subject of a feature on HBO’s Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel.
In the segment, Irsay spoke with correspondent Andrea Kremer about his struggle with addiction and alcoholism, the difficulties of his early life, including the death of his sister in a car crash, and his infamous arrest in 2014 for suspicion of driving a car while intoxicated.
It was a comment that Irsay made on this last point that got the most media attention Wednesday, as he blamed his arrest in part on the fact that he was “prejudiced against” for being a “rich, white billionaire.”
