‘Pawn Stars’ Fined For Leaving Trash At Campsite

‘Pawn Stars’ Fined For Leaving Trash At Campsite

Pawn Stars Rick and Corey Harrison were reportedly fined last month for trashing a state campground in California.

TMZ reports that the Harrisons, as well as several friends, were fined $1000 per person for leaving their campsite filled with garbage and beer bottles. Rick supposedly told the cops that “he’s got a buddy who’s an expert in fines” who said that the ticket was only worth $50. Unfortunately, trashing a state campground in California is considered a misdemeanor and the fines are not negotiable.

Corey Harrison downplayed the incident saying that the Pawn Stars crew was not fined by California police. Harrison said that he left early with his father and that his friends were supposed to clean up. Harrison’s buddy didn’t clean and they were all given tickets.

Harrison said:

“We left the campground before our buddies did and they were to clean it up and apparently didn’t follow through.  My father nor I were cited.”

Harrison may deny that the Pawn Stars were fined during their rowdy Thanksgiving weekend but he doesn’t deny that they left the campground a mess. Local law enforcement said that there was enough garbage to fill 10 trash bags at the Glamis, California campsite.

Here’s a photo of the trashed campsite.

The trash incident wasn’t the Pawn Stars only run-in with police that weekend. Corey Harrison posted a photo on Twitter during the trip of one of his friend’s getting arrested. According to Harrison, the friend had purchased a dirt bike off of Craigslist before the trip. Police thought that the bike was stolen, however, and had him arrested.

  6. Never liked that program. They are allways are trying to beat customers out of their merchandise.Now it seems they are above the law. Go back to Las Vegas and stay.

    Corey, I thought you and your buddies know all about buying hot merchandise? But the fines will pay themselves off instantly with increased ratings and viewership…..which reminds me…I have some tivo-ed episodes to watch!

    I hope those fucking VULTURES are robbed, shot and killed. They are nothing but scumbags preying on desperate gambling and drug addicts.

  9. The only difference between rich white trash and poor white trash is a simple decimal point.

  10. Corey ( big hoss ), is a retard to start with. Have you ever seen him, stick his hand straight out to shake someone else's hand? No! He has to swing it way out like he is slapping something. He is a Big Hoss A$$.

  11. No excuse -Always leave the campsite a little cleaner than when you got there. Of course the show jumped the shark when Chumley thought he became a star.

  12. who cares the campground looks like sh… anyway

  21. Not true. A woman came in once with a spider that had jewles all over it and she wanted $500. Rick examined it and told he couldnt give her what she wanted. He offered her $5000. It was a classic designed by Carl Fabragie (I think thats the spelling) This isnt the only time they've offered more than the cstrs ask for if they know they can get more.

    Their business buys as cheap as they can and do not put a gun to anyone's head to sell. That is the nature of the business,, to MAKE A PROFIT. It is not the salvation army,, it is a business. People are free to leave if they don't like the price offered.

  26. It's all a set up. Ever notice tons of people in the shop looking, but hardly anyone in there when someone comes in to sell something.

  29. I've watched their show a few times. Sometimes there are interesting items brought in, and they are knowledgeable, but I can't stand to watch those guys. I think they are gross. JMHO

    Surprising. Rick is the smartest guy on the planet. You would think one of his cronies would come out and clean up for him. Corey knows a butt load of cops. All for the wrong reasons. And the Old Man could have come up with an "easy cash" scheme for the cops since he is basically a swindler and won't be welcomed in North Carolina again due to stealing peoples money in real estate deals.

    But then again, they could be the Golds. What a grimy, cheesy, unscrupulous bunch of scumbags who make a living off the less fortunate.

  34. Communist California no surprise here.

    WOW! Talk about news that nobody really cares about, why is everything made public knowledge that is so small as this. Whocares if they got a fine or not, worry about your own lives people and don't feel into this crap.

  40. Wouldn't "Harrison trash" be worth selling on ebay? Who wouldn't want a beer can that Corey or Rick drank out of? (written with sarcasm).

  41. These people are disrespectful and only think of themselves.I think the fine for littering should be $2500 per person but of course they will weasle out of it…..

    I was in Vegas and visited the pawn shop. It is not the same as in the show, was told they film in another section of the shop. I looked at the prices and was amazed to see items that they bought for nothing and were selling for 3-4 times what they paid for them. I know it is the way of the business, but to sell something you have to contact the show and those people coming in have already made arrangements to sell their item. That is why Rick seems to know so much about the item, he has researched it before the airing of the program…

    @Christ Eberle, I saw that esposide and it was a faberge Spider worth 30k and he did give her $15k for it I was really wondering if it belonged to her grandmother as she claimed, I would have sold that sucker on Ebay and got the full price or more especially if it was legit I'm just saying lol…

  66. Well bottom line is respect for our earth people. Some were never taught to not litter and clean up after themselves. Maybe this will teach them a lesson. You reserve the campsite, you are responsible! Should have put someone in charge! All About Pride Pawn Star Crew…All About Pride! Do the right thing, pay the fine and offer up your crew to do some community work for California Parks.

    First off, they are all adults. They had no right to trash the place and then think someone else was supposed to clean up their mess. You are supposed to be taught when you are a kid to clean up your own mess and not expect others to do it for you. If the older guys helped trash the campground they should have picked up before they left. Its amazing how when someone has a little money and are on TV they think they are above the rules. I am sure they would be pretty ticked off if someone trashed their shop. Time to grow up dudes. Especially that old grumpy man. Can't stand him.

  75. I love the show–but it's all nonsense. Rick, Corey AND the old man try to give everyone a history lesson each episode, as if they knew what they were talking about.

    But all they do is go and Wikipedia it, and THEN get filmed, thinking we're all idiots.

    Chumley is the ONLY one worth watching. The only one with a sense of humor, and the only one with a heart. The other three are obnoxious morons.

    Hey Larry Smith your photo is a link to your facebook. Were you have posted Jesus loves you.When you post thing that are trashing and judgmental and full of hate and are degrading. You are not representing Jesus,In fact your pushing people away from Jesus by being a hypocrite.Jesus said ye with out sin cast the first stone.He also said that before you pull the splinter out of your brothers eye you must first pull the plank out of your own eye.Also he said by there fruit they shall be known.Your post is your fruit and that post best describes you my friend.Jesus didn't name call or use profanity he corrected with love.

  80. What's wrong with that? At least those people are living in the real world unlike Clown Stars where they'll do anything to make a profit or generate more ratings.

  81. They're NOT knowledgeable. They go to the computer and read up on the stuff…or are given a script to read…and THEN get filmed.

    @Anthony: Pretty LUCKY for a retard! I agree with Larry! I hate men who shake hands like swinging their hands out is a chore. They look like dufuses! It's obvious that one can be a rich, famous moron so there's hope for you, too, Anthony!

  106. Enjoy their show, but things like this seems to be the norm when popularity takes over (free to do whatever you feel like regardless who it hurts) It's a shame you guys feel it's OK to trash a State Park and let someone else clean it up.

  107. I don't know why some people think their better then someone else, when we camp, the camp ground is cleaner then after we lefted. That's what everyone should do, put trash where it belongs!

  108. These guys didn't get where they are because of their good manners. They are in a thug business and act like it. If brains were what counted, they'd be out on their asses. Besides, they are doing business in Vegas, the most shady city in America. I like the show oddly enough, but I am smart enough to take it for what it is…trumped up and scripted "reality" show.

  109. so fame s your standrd uh what a mind set

  110. it a a bunch of phoney baloney anyway and now ther are getting theirb 5 mins of fame they think their really something.

  111. where is chumley! maybe he had sense not to go! hahahahaha

  112. Julie Moskal if you agree with Larry then you too need to read what it means!!!!!!Stop puttin' down the people who can't defend for themselfs!!I pray for you people!!!

  113. For Alll the haters of Pawn Stars……..If you have nothing nice too say, don't say nothing at All! Plus, don't watch the show, Stop insulting disabled people, cause alot of them are alot smarter than You!

  114. First, anybody who takes something to a pawn shop expecting to get what it's worth is an idiot…or a democrat. Same with an antique shop. Second, Pawn Stars is nothing more than a blue collar version of Antiques Road Show. Sadly, like most pop culture TV today, the show has veered away from it's original purpose…interesting stuff…and into the personality drama zone. Now it's 3 fat guys, a senile, creepy old man and occasionally an interesting find.

    And of course it's all staged. Most of the business at pawn shops centers around tools, jewelery, electronics and musical instruments. Seriously…who takes a freekin WW2 airplane to a pawn shop???

  115. FINED for trashing a campsite? SHIT…this happens at Indian Lake evry frickin weekend!

  116. I'm sure alcohol is involved…
