John Daly is famous for his golfing skills and his exuberant habits off the course. He has always been vocal about his love and battle with drinking and smoking with fans. While some like the lively personality Daly represents others criticize his addictive habits.

In a throwback video, Daly was seen enjoying his time at SEC Nation for a basketball game. Fans reacted to the year-old video where Daly confessed to being drunk on live television as he sat down for a fun session.

John Daly confesses “I’m drunk!”

The Arkansas native was seen supporting his team, the Arkansas Razorbacks against the Cincinnati Bearcats. Daly appeared as a guest on the SEC Nation. The golfer played a game of ping-pong beers and, before that, accepted a few from the onlookers.

When the fan offered him the drink, Daly said, “I got some good s*** right here,” but still accepted the beer. The legend is notoriously popular for drinking 35-40 beers without getting drunk, so this was not surprising.

Daly was reading the ‘Hilly Billy Headlines’ segment with Marty and McGee. Making his presence count on the show, the golfer abruptly answered a question irrelevant to his sobriety, “I am not going to lie. I’m drunk.” The video was reshared on ZireGolf’s Instagram page, captioned as “a national treasure.”

When the video went viral previously, people applauded Daly for his savageness and called him a legend, while few others were not pleased with such a showcase of gallantry. The throwback video is once again making a round on social media, but this time around, the reactions are barely positive.

Fans called John Daly a “Sad, drunk, old man”

One fan was shocked by the fact that Daly was drunk by 10 a.m. He said, “Think about how much alcohol THAT guy has to consume to be drunk by 10 AM lol.”

Another questioned the public’s rationale behind calling him a treasure and exclaimed, “A treasure? You all have same low standards.” 

One described John Daly’s character as unamusing and said, “John Daly is a character of himself. He’s no longer funny, he’s a sad drunk old man.”

This fan claimed that the 57-year-old actually needed aid and said, “No. He’s a sick man who needs help.”

Furthermore, one went a bit overboard and called him “a disgrace.” another chimed in and called him “gross.”

This one fan said that calling him a national treasure “speaks volumes about the USA.” Adding fuel to the fire one called him “definitely a slob but a treasure…you people need God.”

Amidst the hate, one called him a “loser” which is not a word in English so we are not sure what is that but another called Daly his “golfing idol.”

One making fun of Daly’s drinking habit connected it to Donald Trump’s shenanigans and said, “Between Daly’s boozing and Trump’s BS, they make a lovely couple. 🌈”

Whether you like it or hate it, Daly is an icon in the golf world. He has always been open with his struggles and, as of now, the veteran identifies himself as “an occasional drinker” and accepts his smoking problems.
