I'll admit, this one's a pretty unique Florida Man.
Just when you think it couldn’t get any weirder, Florida Man proves you wrong.
It can always get even Florider
I want to know where exactly on the books it says this specific act is illegal.
They charged him with indecent exposure. There's not a "defecation on a deceased marsupial with the intent to disrupt traffic" statute.
Sort of seems like there should be now though, eh?
That's not how the law works, silly. They just arrest the guy and then find something to charge him with.
Yeah this sounds like quite a load.
RIP to the possum
Rest in poo
The possum was looking so lonely in its death so the Florida Man just wanted to give it a gift.
Seriously tho, where’s the story about a florida man trying to poop on a live possum, that would be something.
Getting arrested for acting crazy in the epicenter of Scientology is kind of an achievement.
That can't possibly be...
Yep. It's the actual, unedited headline. This one ought to win some kind of award.
[Florida Man] ... was not under the influence of any intoxicants at the time of the alleged incident
- Pinellas County Sheriff's Office
Just thought it was as good a place as any
Setting a new bar for the others
He won the bet though
What did he get arrested for though? Was pooping in public thr part that was illegal or is doing it on a dead possum considered animal abuse?
The last line of the article is
He was charged with exposure of sexual organs and booked at the Pinellas County Jail.
Don't judge, it could happen to anyone
Florida Roulette.
1 of 6 times the opossum is still alive.
