SALAMANCA, N.Y. (WIVB) — A man dressed up as a superhero, or a combination of them, instead played the villain on Tuesday, Salamanca Police say.

Police are looking for a man who they say dressed up in a Batman suit and Captain America mask before stealing beer from a Center St. store.

The man, described as white and his twenties, allegedly took two 18-packs of Budweiser beer, left the store and headed north to the Center Street Bridge.

So is mixing your super hero costumes as bad as mixing your metaphors?

Oh, it’s worse. Like mixing your semaphores.

It’s not unknown for villains to impersonate superheroes, e.g., Kraven the Hunter as Spider-Man in issue #34.

Aside: though lots of folks drink Bud Lite I’ve noticed that you can poke fun at the brew and pretty no one will stand up for it.

So I’ve started calling Bud Lite the “Cleveland of Beers”.

It’s like wearing a Redskins’ cap, and a Cowboys’ jersey at the same time.

Reminds me of a nearby dumb bunny sheriff. The sheriff was buying two six packs of beer and the cashier at the convenience store told him the 12 pack was cheaper. The sheriff declined saying he couldn’t drink all twelve.

Cleveland? Yeah, well, maybe.

Salamanca had < 6K people last census. Can't be that hard to figure out what adult has access to costumes, and very poor, um, nonexistent, taste in beer.

That, and whomever returns 36 B-L empties. Hey, if he's poor enough to chance stealing, there's a pretty good chance he'll return them...

Perhaps Cuomo will go after him for stealing the deposits on the cans, to set an example of white guys breaking the law without cutting in Cuomo & Co?
