I guess he is riding a tractor to the liquor store somewhere.
maybe the funniest ever celeb story!
Well, about that infamous lawn mower ride.
Back in the day, my Dad ‘Don Whidden’ was a cop and Detective with the Bartow, FL. PD and later a Sgt. with the Polk County SO.
My Dad is the one that took the call about some guy riding his lawn mower down the highway. When he got there, he just put good ole George in his car and took him home back to Tammy. And then if I remember right, they had the gardener come with a trailer and brought the riding lawn mower back. This is back when George and Tammy had that big place out on Hwy540A (Lakeland Highlands Rd?)
It was the talk of the town in Bartow for some time.
Was mentioned very briefly is his book, but never mentioned that the Officer was Don Whidden, and how cool of a Cop he was about it.
Just thought I would share.
