Mowing under the influence



A man's got to do what he's got go do for beer.... enter Lawnmower Man!
With a revoked license because of a previous drunken-driving conviction, Dennis Cretton shouldn't drive. But authorities said that didn't stop the 49-year-old man from drunkenly driving up to a gas station for more beer — on his yellow riding lawnmower.
I'm sure there must have been 'someone' else available to refill the guy's beer supply. Nevertheless...
Cretton was charged with felony aggravated driving under the influence after neighbors reported he was weaving in and out of traffic on his lawnmower Friday night.
"Ya'lls ain't gunna take me down without a fight"
When deputies tried to stop him, authorities said Bretton drove the mower into his home's front yard, his 12-pack of Milwaukee's Best spilling onto the ground along the way.
I could only imagine how awesome it would be seeing this on a future episode of Cops.
