David Hasselhoff Hospitalized With Alcohol Poisoning Again

David Hasselhoff
The Hoff has done it again. David Hasselhoff was hospitalized AGAIN this past weekend for alcohol poisoning after an alleged heavy drinking session.

Paramedics were called to his home at around 3:30PM on Sunday after he collapsed from being drunk, reports TMZ. Hoff's 17-year-old daughter called her mother Pamela claiming her dad was extremely drunk, and one of Pamela's friends made the 911 call to paramedics.

A spokesperson for the Los Angeles Fire Department said: "We sent an ambulance and a person was transported to a local hospital." But they wouldn't confirm that it was 'The Hoff'.

David was treated and reportedly left the hospital late Sunday night. It's no secret that Hoff has a long battle with alcoholism. Back in 2007 a video shot by his daughter showed Hoff drunk and lying on the floor, eating a hamburger. He was barely coherent during the video and all you heard was his daughter begging him to stop and get some help.

His last hospital stint was just a few months ago in May. His daughter Hayley also discovered him unconscious that time.

We really hope this is a wake up call for him, because one of these days, there isn't going to be someone home to discover him unconscious and call for help. Alcoholism is such a horrible disease, we really hope he can battle his demons this time around.

I blame Nadya Suleman for this! She found out the Hof is her donor and is blackmailing him! Scandalous!

no aj chats its not like a cancer or any of the other conditions you mention. its an insult to people who have those diseases to lump them in with drunks. you dont go to a bar and say hey bar keep give me a shot of cancer. its a choice and many choose to drink until they are fall down drunks , its people like you who coddle these degenerates and say boo hoo to them that give them the excuse to keep on drinking.

He needs some serious help. I feel sorry for his children the most to have to see their father like this.

How sad for his daughter. It will always effect her in someway. I know. I remember long ago working in a Psychiatric hospital late at night and my boss & friend was writing her thesis that was about adult children of alcoholic parents and just bursting into tears because (remember this was long ago when it wasn't talked about so openly) I didn't think that there were any more out there like me and it totally described me to a tee! My dad was a well respected very successful business man. A great dad and a good provider. But it kind of ruined my childhood because I knew about the drinking and was always worried that something would happen. Something did. He died at the age of 51 of a heart attack. Your body just wears out after a while. My dad could still be here enjoying his grandkids now but he's not. If that video didn't do it.... I'm not sure what will. I feel sorry for his kids. And I understand why he is divorced. I married an alcoholic who is dead now, same thing. And funny but that thesis predicted I would. I pray his daughter sees the signs and does not try to fix another alcoholic by marrying him and breaks the cycle.

Alcoholism is a disease/condition just like my lymphedema and other incurable-but-manageable conditions (e.g. diabetes, Parkinson's, asthma). It has to be managed a day at a time, and some people are better at this than others. The Hoff needs encouragement and understanding instead of ridicule. I hope that he can develop the strength and discipline necessary to better manage an incurable condition, if this is happening too often.
