Sounds like prison is an adventure… to say the least!
Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino finally reunited with his Jersey Shore roommates on Thursday night’s new episode of Family Vacation, and upon getting back in the house he had a LOT of stories to tell about his time away!

As you’ll no doubt recall, the 37-year-old reality TV star is fresh off spending eight months in prison on tax evasion charges. He did his time at the Otisville Federal Correctional Institution in Otisville, New York — and while there, he wound up rubbing elbows with some interesting fellow felons…
As the cast settled in to talk to The Sitch about his last year, he was asked about the craziest situations he experienced inside. The weightlifting aficionado knew exactly where to go with that: his bizarre alleged encounter with Donald Trump‘s former attorney Michael Cohen, who is currently serving a three-year sentence for campaign finance violations, tax evasion, and lying to Congress.
The Situation recalled how things got crazy the very first day Cohen reported to prison, and soon, smuggled chicken (yes, really) came front and center:
“The first day Michael Cohen came in, who was the president’s attorney, we had a lockdown because there were drones and helicopters. The most important thing in prison is food. A lot of the guys will barter, they’ll make deals for food. So when Michael Cohen came in to prison, I heard he didn’t eat chicken. So I went straight up to Michael Cohen and I was like, ‘Listen, Mike. I’m going to need you to do something for me.’ It was his first day. He said, ‘Anything, Mike, what do you need?’ I said, ‘I’m going to need you to smuggle chicken for me, out of the main line. Give it to me and I’m going to put it in my locker so I get an extra serving. He was like, ‘No problem.’ Thursday comes around, which is chicken day — Cohen is nowhere to be found. I was like, ‘Damn, Cohen was chicken on chicken day!’”
Chicken on chicken day?! WTF?? Prison sounds… interesting!

Sorrentino continued from there, revealing he wound up finding the 53-year-old lawyer hours later to ask what happened:
“[Cohen] was like, ‘Yo man, they know we tryin’ to smuggle chicken.’ I was like, ‘Alright man, we’re going to reevaluate. The block is hot.'”
LOLz! Even in prison, The Situation just keeps doing his own thing! For what it’s worth, a rep for Cohen quickly denied the allegation in a statement to Page Six, calling the reality TV fist-pumper’s story “red sauce self-promotional fiction.” Hmmm…
On a serious note, Sorrentino opened up to his roommates about prison life in general, too, noting how difficult it was and how lucky he is to have come away unscathed:
“Listen, the conditions in prison as a whole — you’re not sleeping in a comfortable bed, you’re not eating good food, and this is for long periods of time. You can see how prison could affect some of the other guys that are there for longer than a year. Because eventually, it starts to eat away at you. And if you don’t work at yourself mentally or physically or spiritually, eventually you’re going to be swallowed up by circumstance. It was a crazy experience. But I had the love and support of my beautiful wife, and you guys, which is the most important thing.”
Amen!!!
