Zamboni Driver Accused Of DUI On Ice

[matcom]

this man is living out my fantasy (minus the getting caught part) :D

<snip>

MORRISTOWN, N.J. -- A New Jersey man's Zamboni driving days are on ice.

Authorities say John Peragallo was drunk when he drove the four-ton ice-cleaning machine at a sports arena in Morristown on Sunday.

Police say an employee reported that the machine was speeding and nearly crashing into boards.

Police say Peragallo had a blood-alcohol level of .12. People are legally drunk in New Jersey at .08.

The 63-year-old could lose his driver's license for motor vehicles and Zambonis if he's convicted.

4. This does raise an interesting point...

When are they going to pass a law banning News-Anchoring-Under-the-Influence?

6. Or Tom DeLay delivering a speech under the influence.

[Hugin]

7. Legislating Under the Influence.

On Tom's third L.U.I. he was sent to the hot tub.

12. Well I went down to the local arena Asked to see the manager man

Well I went down to the local arena
Asked to see the manager man
He came from his office, said, "Son can I help you?"
I looked at him and said, "Yes you can..."
I want to Drive the Zamboni...hey
I want to Drive the Zamboni...Yes I do!
Now ever since I was young it's been my dream
That I might drive a Zamboni machine
I'd get the ice just as slick as could be
And all the kids would look up to me
I want to drive the Zamboni...hey
I want to drive the Zamboni...Yes I do!
Now the manager said, "Son, I know it looks keen
But that right there is one expensive machine
And I've got Smokey who's been driving for years."
About that time I broke down in tears.
Cause I want to drive the Zamboni...hey
I want to drive the Zamboni...Yes I do!

Cool that someone else has heard of them here. :) They are playing locally in the Twin Cities the weekend of July 8th. Gotta make the effort to see them.

Though I'm sure they won't play Zamboni. :(

It's getting a scuba rig http://bertrand.ramelot.free.fr/commerce/administrer/images/scuba-kit-gli2000+mk25+scotia.jpg that pumps in a small percentage of with every breath, and driving around with one of these

from secret air-filled (furnished) underwater cavern to secret air-filled (furnished) underwater off the coast of Hawaii that are each filled with hot women in bikinis or short skirts who all want to fuck me.

You can keep the zamboni
