The Johnny Manziel party express is coming to a town near you, assuming you live on the West Coast.
That’s great news for one night of no-regrets partying that will probably feel instantly regrettable the next morning, a bit like how Manziel’s NFL career has gone to this point.
After partying with celebrity chef Mario Batali in Las Vegas last week, Manziel is back on the train in Sin City after attending a Chris Brown concert. He even showed off his massive champagne bottle, which probably cost him his entire year’s NFL salary.
And then there’s this…

For the record, the Twitter bio of the man who snapped that picture is “the asians own the casino”. No comment.
And then, the next night, he was spotted at the Heat/Lakers game at Staples Center courtside.
And last but not least, Johnny Manziel is in the house at the #Lakers game tonight. pic.twitter.com/qW4NX44MAv

He then followed up watching the Lakers by doing what one needs to do after watching the 2015-16 Lakers in person: heavy partying to erase the memories. TMZ reports that Manziel partied with Selena Gomez, Nick Jonas and Brody Jenner in Hollywood later that night.
His new agent Drew Rosenhaus continues to insist that teams are interested in the former Heisman Trophy winner’s services, but on this evidence, it’s more likely that CBS’ Jason La Canfora has reported is true: teams aren’t and won’t be interested in Manziel until he makes “some major life changes and makes real strides towards sobriety.”
For all of the jokes about Manziel and his partying, his inability to fight this addiction is really sad and hopefully he can get the help he needs to get his life back on track.
