DULUTH, Minn. (AP) - A Minnesota man has pleaded guilty to driving his motorized La-Z-Boy chair while drunk. A criminal complaint says 62-year-old Dennis LeRoy Anderson told police he left a bar in the northern Minnesota town of Proctor on his chair after drinking eight or nine beers.
Prosecutors say Anderson's blood alcohol content was 0.29, more than three times the legal limit, when he crashed into a parked vehicle in August 2008. He was not seriously injured.
Police said the chair was powered by a converted lawnmower and had a stereo and cup holders.
Sixth Judicial District Judge Heather Sweetland stayed 180 days of jail time Monday and ordered two years of probation for Anderson. His attorney, David [omitted], did not immediately return a call for comment. |

Exactly BW, ... not very likely this guy is a rookie at this. Wonder if he had a seat belt on that thing too, ... ;) |

It's amazing that he "drove" this thing while drunk, but even more amazing that, given the power source and accoutrements, he must have built it while sober! |
