For fans of The Sandlot, it was a bit of a bummer to hear that one of the stars from the popular 1993 baseball movie, Tom Guiry, had been arrested for head-butting a cop.

But that's just what went down last weekend when the Houston Police Department was contacted by United Airlines at the George Bush Intercontinental Airport about a passenger that appeared to be too drunk to fly.

When officers arrived on the scene, they found the 31-year-old actor had indeed had one too many. Guiry began to threaten the officers and was placed under arrest, during which time he head-butted a cop in the face and was subsequently charged with felony assault of a public servant.

Ah, but for every Tom Guiry, there's a former child star who managed to grow up without a hitch.

Actually, make that several former child stars, including Ryan Gosling, Natalie Portman, Justin Timberlake, Emma Watson, Neil Patrick Harris and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

Just to name a few.
