A Massachusetts man whose colorful golf attire was briefly mistaken for a clown outfit has been charged in New York with driving a golf cart while drunk.

The Genesee County sheriff says they got a report that someone dressed as a clown was operating a stolen golf cart in the western New York town of Batavia on Sunday night. Deputies found 37-year-old James Straub, of Stoneham, Mass., driving along a road.

He wasn't dressed as a clown - just wearing some colorful clothing after an outing at Terry Hills Golf Course.

With my bad golfing a clown suit might be appropriate attire.

I thought this was going to be a story about Uncle Omar’s arrest.

Clowns, golfing, and inebriation run in the family after all.

Not sure if the photo in post #5 is the guy, but it looks like Daly, too.
