So everybody has been looking for the Artie Lange Mugshot. Let me tell you something - it does not exist. Well it does, in some police file in New Jersey, but you won’t be able to find it on the web.
Today I contacted the editor at The Smoking Gun website, who for years has been the top website for celebrity mug shots. Unfortunately, they replied telling me that they had already contacted the police in Tom’s River, NJ last week and were told that police does not make mugshots available to the public.
As I understand it (and I could be wrong), you will find different rules from state to state on whether mug shots are made available. Yes, they are in the public domain but whether they are obligated to make it public is a different story. You should be able to make the request in writing to get such information.
Maybe if there is someone out there that can dig a little deeper, we can probably bring Artie’s mug shot to the surface.
Wednesday’s Show
- Artie maybe joining Robin for the Joan Rivers roast on Comedy Central. Artie admitted that he still gets really nervous for those types of gigs.
- While ripping on Scott, Howard caught Artie standing up to stretch and prompted him to ask what he was doing, saying it was bothering him. Robin chimed in that Artie has never done that before. Artie joked, “Do you want me to start taking heroin again?” Either Howard was doing shtick or he is completely neurotic this morning.
- Howard was pressing Scott about where he will work when there is no more Howard Stern show. Scott said that he could open for Artie. Artie replied, “Open for me? I’m not going to have any more gigs either when he leaves.”
- Artie was on the wrap-up show today.

Tuesday’s show
- Artie is now going to therapy 3 days a week. He admitted that he has cried in therapy.
- HBO Sports president Ross Greenburg commented on Artie’s Joe Buck Live appearance, “We should have had one of those old-style hooks or, as Joe said, a trapdoor. Probably we should have kicked him off. In retrospect, we certainly should never have let that overtime segment happen. That magnified it. Looking back at the actual show it wasn’t nearly as disastrous as the overtime. That became fodder for the Internet, so that magnified the problem.” Source and more

Please answer the poll question at the bottom of this article.
“Actually, I can’t talk about it. I’ll spill my guts another day. I’m actually doing something sensible and listening to a lawyer,” said Artie Lange, talking about his arrest last Friday for Suspicion of DUI after a traffic accident.
Artie explained that he was on the way back from the pharmacy to pick up antibiotics for his sick mother when the accident occurred. No wonder the police arrested him, it sounds made up already. Of course, this is just the beginning of another story in a life that turned a book into a best seller. Artie said, “It wasn’t even an accident…no, not really.” Two 20-year-old kids were in the other car involved in the collision. They both recognized Artie and were adamant that they were not close to being hurt. Artie said they were both “cool with it”.
At the time of the accident, Artie was driving a Nissan Sentra. He explained that it was a rental car because his Mercedes was in the shop getting around $8,000 worth of repairs done to it. Back in June, Artie had parked his car over night at the airport. When he returned the following day, he noticed that his car was damaged and whoever was at fault had already left the scene. Artie’s friend and director of Beer League, Frank Sebastiano called Artie to joke about how bad it looks that he was driving a Senta.
Once the police arrived, Artie was given a Breathalyzer, in which he passed with a 0.0. He swears that he was not drinking, nor was he taking any illegal drugs. However, he did say that he had just started taking a prescription for Lexapro. He said the cops were very nice and cordial about everything.
After the arrest, Artie was taken to jail and only stayed there for about an hour and a half. Artie recounted, “Oddly enough, I am very familiar with those surroundings. It was weird being in a cell, I was like, I’ve been here before.” He thought it was his 18th time he had been arrested. While there he was given a urine test to check for narcotics. Artie said that he voluntarily took all the tests.
Artie’s court date is scheduled for this Friday. He said he is taking this all very seriously since it is a DUI and can lose his license and possibly work. Artie joked about his mug shot, “I already had a mug shot, I think I was happy with my first couple…and what I must look like in this mug shot because I hadn’t showered yet and neglected to shave the entire vacation.”
