Long Island man, 35, who stripped naked and gyrated on poker table ‘was drugged at bachelor party’
The family of a Long Island man who danced naked on a poker table at a Las Vegas casino claim he was ‘drugged’ bee the Bachelor party he went to.
Brian Danilczyk, 35, was in Sin City for the bash and started behaving erratically after his drink was spiked, according to his pregnant wife.
Michele Danilczyk claimed a ‘hallucinogenic drug’ had slipped into his drink, while his father – who witnessed the incident – said his son was in an ‘altered state of mind’.
Danilczyk is charged with disorderly conduct, assault and indecent exposure five times after he was arrested on Sunday.
He was caught on camera standing completely naked on a table at Harrah’s Casino.

Danilczyk reportedly “climbed on top of a poker table and came and showed off his genitals to anyone who [passed] exposing his penis and testicles as he spun,” the police report said.
Officers said that as security made its way to Danilczyk, he “exposed his anus to anyone who passed on the ground floor.”
Michele on Wednesday defended her husband’s actions, which she said were not in keeping with their character.
“I’ll start by saying we’re good people and my husband is a great person,” she said.
“He would NEVER act like that. He’s the victim. The person who chose to drug my husband is the real criminal and is responsible for such behavior.
“His drink was laced with some drug that caused a severe hallucinogenic reaction.
“He can’t remember it happening, so we work a lot in the emergency room and visit doctors for a toxicology exam to find out exactly what kind of drug it was.
“We live a very happy and blessed life.”
At 11:20 p.m. on Sunday, Danilczyk punched a one-legged man in the Flamingo Hotel’s Bird Bar, according to police.
Footage of what transpired at Harrah’s was shared on social media showing Danilczyk naked atop a poker table at the casino

He then made his way to Harrah’s where the videotaped scene unfolded.
Danilczyk was seen scrambling atop one of the poker tables on the packed casino floor.
Completely naked, he then began to twist his hips and place his hands behind his head as onlookers began to record the incident.
Yellow-clad security teams quickly surrounded Danilczyk, who then lay on his back and exposed his anus to the watching crowd.
One casino employee was forced to turn away and cover her eyes, while others can be heard laughing in the video.
Danilczyk’s father, William Danilczyk, said his son was “in an altered state of mind” at the time of the incident.
“He and his friend were sitting outside talking about homeowners insurance, and someone inside bought everyone a round,” he said.
“They were getting ready to leave the bar, and they called them in and said, ‘Hey, they bought a round, the drinks are here.’

After managing to grab Danilczyk, the group of three guards managed to pull him to the ground and he went to a waiting area
“So they came in and had their drinks, and he went out, and 10, 15 minutes later he says to his friend, ‘I’m not feeling well.’ There’s something weird. There’s something wrong with me.’
“He started to get all paranoid and ran away. They went after him and found him, and tried to calm him down, but he just started getting worse and worse and worse, and actually this drug took over and he started running.”
Security teams caught Danilczyk when he picked up a card shoe that was on the table and sent cards across the floor.
After being pulled to the ground by the security team, he began to struggle with the three men before they were finally able to detain him.
As he is carried away, the crowd that had gathered to watch erupt in applause.
Danilczyk was escorted to a waiting area and covered with a blanket.
Police said he appeared to be in an “altered mental state” and was cooperating.
They said his vital signs were stable and as they continued the examination, he cleared up but could not remember the incident.
Danilczyk was then taken to the Clark County Detention Center before being released.
His next court appearance is scheduled for Thursday, August 17.
