Johnny Manziel Reportedly Sported Blonde Wig and Mustache While Partying in Vegas

Johnny Manziel, what are you doing?

The Johnny Manziel Era in Cleveland appears to be almost certainly over. Over the weekend, USA Today reported that he was spotted eating and gambling in a Las Vegas casino the day before a game—despite a photo later posted to Instagram with his doggy geotagged in Avon, Ohio. Then Peter King reported that Manziel missed a mandatory meeting on Sunday morning. Even though Manziel was not playing, Browns players in the concussion protocol are required to meet with team physicians at 9 AM on Sunday and Manziel was a no-show. He could not even be reached by phone and Peter Bing King said the Browns were "so done" with him. Now? Manziel reportedly went full Bobby Valentine in Vegas.

According to ESPN Las Vegas, Manziel donned a blonde wig and wore a fake mustache as he partied until 3 AM on the Vegas strip.

Our sources tell us Manziel was at a popular night club on the strip Saturday night. The QB entered wearing a blonde wig, a fake mustache, glasses, and a hoodie. Manziel introduced himself as "Billy." He was there into the 3am hour and when it came time to pay the bill, he asked to have it comped because he didn't bring cash and also didn't want to put it on his card. However, the sources tell us he ended up paying with his card and signing the check.

ESPN further reports that Manziel was seated in "the most private area" of the restaurant—still wearing the wig and 'stache—and later partied in dark VIP rooms. It took two years of professional football and countless missteps, but at least Manziel has finally learned to avoid the rush (of paparazzi and cameraphones).
