You know you’re a redneck when…

You get charged with a DUI in a motorized La-Z-Boy.

A Proctor man driving a motorized La-Z-Boy lounge chair hit a parked vehicle while under the influence of alcohol.

There’s a picture at the link.

Anderson claimed he was driving the chair fine until a woman jumped on it and knocked the chair off course. He has one prior DWI conviction. He couldn’t be reached for comment Wednesday.

Proctor Deputy Police Chief Troy Foucault said the chair was powered by a converted lawnmower with a Briggs & Stratton engine. It has a stereo, cup holders and other custom options, including different power levels.

Happy Friday, folks. I have a twin b’nai mitzvah to attend tonight and tomorrow. My ex-students are all growing up. Hopefully, none of them will grow up into anything like this guy.

    I see that as a solution to a problem, good old American ingenuity
    A few months ago there was a guy with a motorized bar stool.

    Sure it sounds good, but…
    I’ve fallen off bar stools when drinking but I’ve never fallen out of a La-Z-Boy.
