Bam Margera made headlines once again for all the wrong reasons. The former MTV star was recently arrested for public intoxication. Margera's battles with intoxication have long been in the public eye. It seems that Margera cannot seem to defeat those demons that overshadow him. However, that hasn't stopped family and friends from attempting to save his life. Those close to Margera have once again made it clear to Margera that he must turn his life around.
However, the planned intervention didn't take for Margera. According to TMZ, a source close to Margera had this to say on the planned intervention. "A couple of Bam's longtime friends organized the intervention earlier this month while he was in San Diego, on the heels of his L.A.-area arrest for public intoxication." However, it seems a few factors stalled their intentions of looking out for Margera's health. One of those issues is Bam's current girlfriend. Apparently, she is against the idea because she wouldn't have a place to live without Margera being around.
