On Tuesday, surveillance footage of Paul Bissonnette’s one-on-six brawl inside and outside a restaurant was released to the public. The release also included the 911 call from BizNasty himself, which led to the arrest of six people—and now, everyone is calling the NHL analyst a hero!
The incident occurred in November when Paul Bissonnette tried to defuse a tense situation as a group of drunk golfers became aggressive and physical with the staff and the restaurant’s manager.
Bissonnette, who was dining there, intervened, but the group began throwing punches. The fight soon spilled outside the restaurant. Despite being outnumbered six to one, Bissonnette held his own, as evidenced by the attackers’ mugshots showing bruised and swollen faces.

On Tuesday, the Scottsdale Police Department released surveillance videos of the fight. In the footage, Bissonnette is seen shirtless, taking on the men in a parking lot. At times, he was kicked and punched while on the ground but eventually managed to escape into a nearby CVS drugstore, where he called the police. On Wednesday, his 911 call was released, and you can hear it here:
In the comment section, people praised Bissonnette for standing up for the restaurant and its staff:
“Biz is a solid citizen. Thanks, Paul!” one person said.
“Who am I kidding? I could never do that in a million years. Biz = brave! Thanks for taking care of business, bro,” another wrote.
“You’re a gentleman and a legend. Way to stick up for the little guy. That’s better than any hockey or broadcasting accomplishment—a good person doing great things!” a third added.
“Give Biz the keys to the city! Guy is a hero!” a fourth commenter declared.
