Necessary Adams was living in Reno at the time of this incident. I’m sure you know that gambling is lawful in Nevada, and gambling is what this incident is all about. Necessary drinks too much when he’s losing money and that’s what’s happening on this particular gambling junket.

Two bouncers have already warned Necessary that if he doesn’t quiet down they’ll show him to the door, forcibly. A few minutes later Necessary finds himself upside down on the casino’s front lawn.

He tries to re-enter, but a bouncer looking like an off-duty NFL linebacker explains things in a way Necessary can’t fail to understand.

So the young gambler goes home and pouts while having another drink or three. Now here comes Necessary’s moment of gross stupidity:

He telephones the casino and says he’s coming back to the club armed with a high-powered rifle, a bazooka, and a backpack filled with high-powered explosives. "Unless," says Necessary, "you pay me $100,000 for the injuries I just received when you threw me out of your casino."

The bouncer on the phone tells Necessary the casino will pay him $100,000. "Where do you want us to deliver the money?"

Necessary, whose mouth usually begins running before his mind is in gear, gives the bouncer his home street address, apartment and zip code number. "I’ll expect the money in one hour," Necessary says as he slams down the phone. "I reckon I showed them."

It takes less than half an hour before there’s a knock on the door. All smiles, Necessary opens up, only to find himself standing face-to-face with the Sheriff’s SWAT team outfitted in riot gear, body armor, helmets, gas masks, MP-5Ks — the whole nine yards.

No weapons or explosives are found during a search of Necessary’s apartment, but he is arrested for making threats. Necessary will face the grand jury to explain his actions which could land him back in jail.
