Sounds like he was mowing his yard and took a wrong turn. Or he was on his way to get more beer.
We need to ban this dangerous drug.
I saw a guy cutting his grass in the rain holding an umbrella. He was good looking and doing a good job.
Looks like he’s had a rough life. Most of it self inflicted, likely. The guy still has good hair and I imagine was not a bad looking fellow, at one time.
A shame that it’s come to this, for him. Being busted for a DUI on a flipping lawn mower.
Maybe he’ll straighten his life out, some day soon.
Rid hard and put up wet. That said, you can’t really mow a lawn without beer.

When the name of your hometown is Cut Off that might say something.
He should have ben Cut Off long before he got on that lawnmower.
Probably drinking that Natural Ice or Milwaukee’s Best Ice crap. It’s the choice of alcoholics: Cheap, high alcohol content. That s—t will dissolve your liver.
Will he lose his lawnmower driver’s license?
On top of everything else, he left his dentures in a tall glass of Epsom Salts on top of his dresser. What a day, I tell ya!
I doubt it. His wife can’t mow.
Boy, that’s a hard 59.
If you can't cut off traffic in "Cut Off" where can you go?
LOL
Seems I remember a story about George Jones and a riding lawn mower.
We had a neighbor who was perpetually drunk and cut his grass by flashlight.
Cut Off is where former New Orleans Saints quarterback Bobby Hebert (A-Bear) is from.
