At least he wasn’t driving this time.
“24” star Kiefer Sutherland knocked back so many drinks during a recent dinner at Lure in SoHo that he practically had to be carried out of the restaurant, a spy told us.
The 43-year-old actor, who has been arrested for drunken driving and is no stranger to public intoxication, “was having a tough time holding himself up and wasn’t making much sense, and was slurring his speech,” our witness said.
"The staff helped him stand upright,” the witness said.
The restaurant’s management declined to comment, and messages left with representatives for Sutherland were not immediately returned.
Sutherland’s dining partner, surprisingly, was rocker Jon Bon Jovi, who kept his alcohol intake under control and posed for pics with fans before leaving the restaurant to smoke a few cigarettes.I hate to hear that Kiefer is apparently continuing his struggles with alcohol, but... Ohhhh..... the fantasies that come out of this little dinner-date. Jack Bauer and His Royal Highness, together.... GAHHHHH....

Hmmmm....makes me curious what they would be talking about and how they would know each other - nothing jumps to mind. They've known each other since Young Guns II (maybe before); Kiefer was in both YG movies and famously palled around with Emilio Estevez during those days. I've seen pics of Jon with both of them back then; don't know how much they keep in touch today. Bon Jovi also did the song "Good Guys Don't Always Wear White" for a movie Kiefer did with Woody Harrelson, "The Cowboy Way". I'm sure they both have many mutual friends and run into each other from time to time. Damn, it would be COOL to see JBJ on 24!!! But given the tour and his recent comments about being done acting, I'm not getting my hopes up...
