What was said
"I drove a car into a building in a blackout. Um, and nobody else was involved in that accident, thank God. And, um, and then, yeah, the judge was like, "You can go back to jail or you can go to rehab.""
Rob Delaney tells Conan O’Brien he got sober 24 years ago after driving into a building while in a blackout, an incident he says prompted a judge to offer him a choice between jail and rehab. Delaney frames it as a turning point, saying the realisation his drinking could have killed someone else helped him accept he had a serious problem and seek help.
