Darwin Olympics: Drunk Dude Steals Walmart Shopping Scooter

Meanwhile in Florida . . .

One dude didn’t get the joyride he’d intended.

John Davis (59) hit up his local Walmart in St. Petersburg . . . and drunkenly drove off on one of their motorized shopping scooters (because, obviously).

Apparently he was heading to his home in Palmetto, 20 miles away, but only made it a mile into the drive before the battery ran out of juice.

Police caught John trying to recharge it at a convenience store, and arrested him for FELONY GRAND THEFT!

. . . Pretty sure an Uber/Lyft/Cab would have been cheaper, buddy . . .
