Rocker OZZY OSBOURNE underestimated how strict rehab would be the first time he checked in, thinking there would be an onsite bar.
The 58-year-old was looking forward to his stay at the Betty Ford Clinic in California, after the receptionist instructed in a phone call to continue drinking and taking drugs until his arrival.
Osbourne tells US magazine Blender, "I phoned them and said, 'I'm coming in.' The woman asked me, 'What drugs are you doing right now?' I told her, 'Booze and coke.'
"She said, 'I want you to keep doing them until you get here.' So I go, 'F**king hell, this is going to be a great place!"
