DENVER (KDVR) — A man was arrested for surfing naked on top of a moving locomotive on Thursday, according to a social media post from the Sedgwick County Sheriff’s Office.
The man, identified as Daniel Ray Ballance of Quartzsite, Arizona, broke the window on a Union Pacific Railroad locomotive and entered it.
Ballance was arrested and faces a combination of felony and misdemeanor charges, according to the sheriff’s office.
“For those of you who had the unfortunate experience of seeing this gentleman surfing naked on top of a moving locomotive yesterday, I want you to know that he was arrested on felony and misdemeanor charges,” said the post.
He reportedly expressed to law enforcement his love of vodka, beer and the banjo.
“Daniel expressed his love of vodka, beer and playing the banjo. Unfortunately, we had to separate him from those loves and the train ride,” said the sheriff’s office.

There are those who have, and those who lie about it.
Public castration with a dull knife would be a good deterrent against future events like this.
I’m afraid to open the link. There might be pics that I don’t want to see.

Get off that locomotive and that meth.
He was on his way to Maine to run for the senate in place of Graham Platner.
A friend of mine and I saw a guy posing naked on a freeway on-ramp cloverleaf one night. After I confirmed with my friend that he saw it too and I wasn’t hallucinating, we figured it had to be a frat hazing prank, as the guy appeared to be pretty young. We were getting on 280 in Cupertino, so San Jose State University wasn’t far away, nor was Stanford University.
This was back in the early 1980s.
Cowabunga Brah!!
I guess he figured his balance would get him through.
I’ll betcha it doesn’t smell majestic.
Should be legal.
They have naked bike rides in Denver. It is the absolute greatest things you’ve ever seen. Funny as all get out.
After clicking on this, Im thankful that I never got caught naked surfing trains.
I kinda thought it might be a banjo player. What I need to know is, 3 finger or clawhammer style?
He didn’t catch any BB’s.
Surf? In Colorado?
“C’mon baby do the locomotion-—!” And a second comes to mind-—
“In the shuffling madness of the locomotive..
breath, runs the all time loser, headlong to his death
Oh he feels the pistons scraping,steam breaking on his brow,
old Charley, he stole the handle and the train won’t stop going.... NO it should slow down”
He sees his children jumping off at the stations one by one-
His woman and his best friend in bed and having fun
He’s crawling down the corridor on his hands and knees
Old Charley stole the handle and the train won’t stop going,
NO Way to slooooow down”.
