TOBACCO-chewing "Apprentice" Chris Shelton was arrested over the weekend outside a Florida hotel bar on a disorderly conduct charge. Shelton, a 22-year-old real-estate millionaire, was taken into custody early Sunday at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. He was released after posting $250 bail. A tribal police officer said he heard a noisy Shelton in the hotel lobby and asked him twice to calm down. When he did not, cops arrested him, said Seminole police spokesman Gary Bitner. "He was loud, and he just wouldn't calm down," Bitner said. Shelton was peeved over a $20 cover charge for the hotel bar.
