MLB pitcher Anthony Banda is facing serious backlash—and a civil lawsuit—after allegedly disturbing his neighborhood by revving the engine of his new Lamborghini Huracán at 2:00 AM while under the influence of alcohol. Multiple neighbors have filed complaints, claiming the deafening noise kept the entire luxury community awake.

Drunken Late-Night “Test” Sparks Lawsuit

According to several eyewitnesses, Banda was seen revving his Lamborghini repeatedly in his driveway, creating sounds that some described as “explosive” and “impossible to sleep through.” The event reportedly lasted several minutes and was loud enough to prompt multiple 911 calls from frustrated residents.

One neighbor described the scene:

“It was like trying to sleep next to a racetrack. He was clearly drunk, laughing, and saying he was ‘testing out the new exhaust.’ That’s not testing—that’s terrorizing the block.”

Police Respond, Neighbors File Civil Action

Local authorities responded to the disturbance but did not make an arrest, noting that while Banda appeared intoxicated, he was not operating the vehicle on the road. However, the disruption led to a formal civil suit, with neighbors seeking damages for emotional distress, sleep disruption, and public nuisance.

The group is asking for $60,000 in compensation and a legal order banning Banda from operating or revving sports vehicles between 10 PM and 7 AM within the residential community.

Banda Issues Public Apology

The following morning, Banda issued a brief statement through his publicist:

“I deeply regret what happened and want to apologize to my neighbors and the community. It was a poor decision on my part, and I take full responsibility.”

Despite the apology, public sentiment is mixed. On social media, fans are divided—some call it a harmless misstep, while others argue that celebrities and athletes must be held to higher standards, especially when it comes to respecting shared spaces.

Noise, Wealth, and Supercars: A Growing Issue?

Incidents like this continue to raise concerns about the clash between luxury lifestyles and community norms. Vehicles like the Lamborghini Huracán are engineered to be loud and aggressive, which may be thrilling on the track—but disruptive in a quiet neighborhood.

Local officials say they are reviewing noise ordinances and considering tighter restrictions on late-night engine activity in residential areas.
