I just got this off of The Smoking Gun....good stuff. Darn funny....
In a law enforcement first, Ohio cops this month arrested a man for drunk driving on a motorized bar stool. That's right, a motorized bar stool, which can be seen below in a police evidence photo. According to cops, Kile Wygle, 28, crashed his bar stool near his Newark home earlier this month and called 911 due to his injuries. When an officer arrived and asked Wygle what happened, he answered, "I wrecked my bar stool." According to a Newark Police Division report, a copy of which you'll find here, Wygle's homemade ride is powered by a Briggs & Stratton lawnmower engine. Wygle noted that the bar stool could hit nearly 40 miles per hour, but that he was only going 20 when he wiped out late in the afternoon on March 4 (a witness told police that he spotted someone driving a "strange motorized machine" before the crash). A plastered Wygle, who failed a series of field sobriety tests, was charged with DUI and driving with a suspended license, both misdemeanors. His bar stool was not impounded.:D

i hear about this on the radio while i was at work - my boss and i cracked up about it. first time i saw a picture of the barstool though, it looks pretty cool
 
My neighbor Brian built himself one of those things... It is loud as $H!+ but damn it's fast. I believe the 40mph part. He had it painted bright neon green lol
 
LMAO. That's great. Hahaha, and that thing is awesome! I love how it has a wheelie bar. XD
 
No, this one looks like it works.
 
Those things really go so I have no doubts that wheelie bar is fully functional and sees use.
