Beer Box Bandit
Hard to believe, but a story out of Lincoln, Neb., says a bandit with a Bud Light box on his head robbed a convenience store of $50 worth of cigarettes.
The bandit gestured as if he had a weapon, the police say they were told. He later discarded his "mask", an empty 12-pack. The police said they are checking it for fingerprints.
This incident poses several questions ...
- What happened to the beer?
- Do you suppose he drank it?
- Can you really get fingerprints from a 12-pack?
I have heard of beer drinkers putting lamp shades on their heads, but this is the first time I have heard of a beer carton being a hat.
Have you, or anyone you know, ever used a beer carton as headgear?
If you answer yes, the Lincoln Police Department might want to speak with you.

I have seen hats made out of beer cans. You cut the top and bottom off, cut out the front of the can with the name/logo, and punch holes around the perimeter. Then you crochet these panels into a hat. Perfect for a Nascar race.:-)

All he stole was cigarettes? I guess he's just one of those guys who only smokes when he's had a few.

Ah, memories of my favorite movie about beer, the aptly named "Beerfest"...
