MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Two lawyers nabbed in the nude found themselves on the other side of the courtroom.

David Burleson and Todd Buss pleaded no contest to disorderly conduct Monday in Dane County Circuit Court and were fined $200 and court costs.

The lawyers, both 40, were found in the laundry room of a downtown apartment building Oct. 11 after the University of Wisconsin's football victory over Ohio State.

They told police that rain soaked their clothes as they were celebrating the Badgers' win, and a building resident said they could dry off in the laundry room.

Burleson and Buss were charged with disorderly conduct for being "extremely uncooperative" with police.

According to police reports, the two were "extremely intoxicated" and loudly singing when officers arrived. Burleson and Buss tried to cover themselves with a skull cap and a mesh laundry bag, the police report said.

Neither lawyer returned a phone message left at their office Tuesday.
