Did a spurned request for a foursome lead to the fight between Shawne Merriman and bisexual girlfriend Tila Tequila? According to 10News.com, Tequila walked into the bedroom of the house she shares with the NFL star, where she saw him with two women. After Merriman asked her to join them, Tequila stormed out and threatened to have sex with one of his friends, after which Tequila claims Merriman choked her and threw her to the ground. He denies the choking charge and maintains that Tequila was intoxicated and he was simply trying to prevent her from driving drunk.
