This is from the AP-

EXPORT, Pa. – Pennsylvania State Police say a man was drunk when he hopped on a lawn tractor and drove it to buy more beer.

Police say 63-year-old Ford Earl Broome, of Export, was stopped by a state trooper at about 8 p.m. on Sept. 6.

The trooper says he stopped Broome near a tavern, and that Broome smelled of alcohol and appeared to be drunk. Police say Broome denied drinking, but then acknowledged he “drank a little” before driving the tractor to a bar to buy more beer.

Police say Broome’s blood-alcohol content was about double the state’s legal limit for drivers.

Broome did not immediately return a message left at his house Friday. His preliminary hearing is Dec. 14.

These stories always bring me back to my boy Steve. At the end of the day, all Steve wants to do is get to the Oyster Shack.
