Nick NolteNick Nolte shocked fellow passengers this week when he passed out cold on the floor at the Kauai Airport. An onlooker took pictures with his cell phone, which show Nolte on the floor behind seats in the lounge, while those seated look back in disbelief. A source told TMZ.com that Nolte was friendly, despite being seemingly inebriated, and chatted with fans as well as posing for pictures. However, the source adds that Nolte appeared to have troubles with his coordination: “At one point we helped him put a dollar in the vending machine.”

    It doesn’t matter who you are there should be some control in regards to policing. Isn’t there a law or something saying that you are not allowed to be drunk in public. It’s not only a danger to them but a danger to the general public as well. Someone could have tripped over him.

    Really not one of my favorite actors but needs to get off the booze and get a life.

    It was good of him to pose for pictures and take time for his fans.

    He just has a lot of time on his hands. But it’s okay to get hammered once in a while. I hope he gets through this, ’cause he is a good actor when he’s working and coherent!

    It’s too bad that A once great actor has taken to booze.However,to the person who took the pictures of nick….that was A pretty rude and ignorant thing too do.You are not helping the situation,and if it was me in nick’s shoe’s, I would have sued your ass for defamation of character and copyright infringement as you did not have permission too take said pictures.Just A little something too think about.

    Instead of making jokes and innuendos against Nick Nolte we should be sympathetic. Alchoholism is a disease and not a funny joke. I’m sure if he xcould stay away from the booze he would. No matter what one thing for sure he can act. I wish him well and hope someday he will find sobriety.

    Look at him…he’s been looking like a drunk-ass alcoholic all of his life. Dont be surprised if he’s been snorting coke through his asshole too. Throw this guy into a gutter, thats where this piece of shit belongs.

    Hey Jimbo, Nick Nolte cannot sue the photographer as it is not illegal to take his picture. If so, National Enquirer, etc. would have been out of business long ago. Copyright infringement???? Defamation of character????? You wouldn’t make a very good lawyer now would you? Nolte deserves the bad rep. not the photographer. I mean, after all, he was drunk in a public place and he should know better, as this was not the first time. Get help Mr. Nolte…AGAIN!! I mean, yeah, alcoholism is a disease, but don’t keep using that as an excuse!!

    i wish people would leave people alone. so what if nick wants to tie one on now and again. i like to do that myself, but my boyfriend is a hippocrit like some of you and we’re splitting up because i like to drink once in awhile. lame excuse to leave someone especially when he drinks now and again, himself. to all you sober people, leave us drinkers alone……..
