Todd Helton's mugshot compounds embarrassment of DUI arrest (Photo)

Colorado Rockies first baseman Todd Helton was arrested early Wednesday morning for driving under the influence of alcohol. However, as if the DUI arrest wasn't bad enough, Helton compounded his embarrassment by taking one of the all-time worst mugshots you will ever see.

Helton has apologized for his actions and is accepting full responsibility.

This gives us an opportunity to provide another reminder to all of you out there: Please don't drink and drive.
