Skateboarding and stunt TV personality Bam Margera has already had a run-in with Australian police over an argument with hotel staff.

In Melbourne before a run of “appearances”, Margera admitted to Time Off's Ben Doyle this morning that he almost spent his first night in the country with police for company.

“Haaa, I did indeed,” he said. “Basically, I found out that a year ago at Soundwave, I was at that very same hotel and I decided to do a few paintings in my room and I spilled a little bit of paint, and they decided to charge me $5,000.

“So I paid the bill, and when I checked into the same hotel a year later, which was last night, I wasn't too fond of that. So... Oh, I asked for an adaptor and the guy wouldn't bring me up one, so then I walked downstairs and he wasn't doing anything really, expect for making faxes. I was like, 'You're making faxes to people that aren't even here; you should care more about your customers at your hotel'. And the next thing you know the police show up and now I'm not allowed back there, but all my stuff is there so I don't know how that's going to work.”

He added, “I'll just stay at some random houses as far as I'm concerned.”

He'll make his first Australian appearance in Ballarat tonight before visiting other venues on the east coast.
