Oh, Texas...

With a six-pack of beer in hand and dog at his side, a shirtless Fort Worth man operating a forklift took police on a chase of epic low-speed proportions that ended with a tasing.

The man, identified as 43-year-old Tim Raines, faces various charges after stealing a forklift in order to go on a beer run. He eventually lead Fort Worth police on a chase on various parts of Interstate 30 and other side streets on Sunday evening.

"I took the tractor and I drove the tractor to a beer store," Raines said in a jailhouse interview following his arrest. "I picked up a six-pack. I had my dog with me on top of the lift."

Raines' forklift antics were caught on tape by University of Texas at Arlington student Nathan Lowery, who saw the alleged drunken driver and heavy machine thief driving erratically.

If it's something nice and classic, that's one thing, but the people who are well into their 30s that wear the logo-plastered clothing of ANY brand have always bothered me.. It's like they haven't bothered to grow up any past high school. Just my opinion, though.

Don't they just graduate to the Affliction Christian Audigier stuff?

Umm that could totally be Idaho, I have seen many a person who cannot legally drive due to DUI ride a lawn mower around. There used to be this bar, The Slurp 'N Burp, where more than once a dude would roll in on a riding lawn mower, from age 21 on up to 80s or 90s for sure. Even better, when he made a friend and she rode home with him. The karaoke serenades of "She thinks my tractor's sexy" had real meaning.
