Stupid reasons for being arrested

    Ok, so myself & the band were on our way to play a gig in Carlow. Due to the usual reasons (drummer forgot his sticks, bassist couldn't find his jocks), we were late as f*ck.

    So, foot down, we bombed it till the petrol ran low.

    Pulled over at a petrol station, panicking coz we were late & pulled out the hose without turning it off properly.

    Got petrol all down my arm.

    Anyway - to cut a long story short, as we drove off, the drummer handed me a spliff & a bit fell off onto my arm, setting it alight.

    Not thinking that oxygen would make it worse, I waved my arm out the window to try & put it out.

    Lucky me - there was a squad car behind us, who pulled us over. The guard said he'd have to arrest me.

    When I asked for what, he replied, "Posession of a fire arm."

    to be fair he probably arrested you for smoking a spliff while driving.

    My cousin once got approached by police while walking home on a cold winter's day because he was wearing a balaclava. They asked him what did he think he was doing wearing it etc. and he eventually embarassed them into pissing off by asking them were they going to arrest him for wearing a hat.

    Yeah but was he also wearing clothes with arrows on them and bag over his shoulder with SWAG wrote on it? Sounds like a doggy character to me.

    Was this actually a story or a terrible joke?

    Thats Great, is that an original Joke, I may just have to rob that and tell it in the pub later on :D:D:D

    If the bag had WAG written in it, then he'd be a doggy character.

    Ha ha ha ha!!!

    I thought it was hilarious! Love ridiculous word play!

    The fact that some people went through so much effort to insult you is much worse than the joke too!!! :D Good job man.
    Except for ronano's comment "you ruined my night" that was funny! :p

    Thought this was going to be a thread discussing the funnier reasons people have gotten arrested for though!
