I liked the headlines better when we actually had A and B before C. It made things funnier if you ask me.

Why didnt he steal one of those little golf cars and tell the cab to wait for him at a street while he used it to get there?

FTA:police were searching for him with a dog and a search plane

Who the hell uses search planes?

...you're supposed to call Roman for a ride with a wanted level. Tsk tsk.

Not sure why that was a bad plan. As far as desperate acts go, it seemed fairly reasonable to me.

 
Coeriv 2008-07-12 09:28:59 PM  
Good plan, failed at the execution. Take the cab to a different town then you live in, or at least, to the edge of the town you live in. foot it home, all ninja like.

If you take it to a different town, switch companies or call a friend for a ride.

I see monstershapiro and budlabwee3 have already beaten me to the punch. But I already went through the trouble of clicking on the thread, so:

The suspect in question. Presumed to be armed and hatless. Repeat; Hatless.

WTF are you going to steal from a golf course?

Golf gear?

The fifty bucks in the pro shop register?

Free passes?

There's nothing there man, just a bunch of old drunk white guys who don't have any money either.

this headline +1

Actually this is the first time I have seen the lack of A,B etc. The only thing I regret about leaving a corporate gig is my drastically abbreviated Fark time. I no longer get the freshest memes. Boooooo.

In theory, it sounds like a good plan. Everyone there are old, rich and white. There should be buckets of money just laying around for the taking. However in the credit card age, no one carries cash. That and the worst person to rob is a rich whitey. They got the lawyer power to put people away for life.

Yeah, and if you're not white, the DA will personally see to it that someone cuts your balls off.

Something like this happened recently in my town. An idiot robbed a farm implement store, then ran next door to a car dealership. When he couldn't steal a car easily, he asked the dealership if he could use their phone to call a cab. He was arrested within 3 minutes, still in the lobby of the dealership waiting for the cab.

Couldn't he have just stolen a golf cart?

 
BioCritter 2008-07-12 11:27:13 PM  
When it came near, did the license plate say FRESH? Did it have dice in the mirror?

How do you rob a whole golf course? Did he start at the clubhouse and work his way around, or did he just wait at the 18th hole and just collect the money as each foursome finished their game?

DRTFA, but still, neither way makes much sense.

 
battlehamster 2008-07-13 01:10:27 AM  
DRTFA. Subby fails.

Actually, it sounds like he called the cab and got away and was caught much later after an investigation when the police manhunt failed... so the cab thing wasn't such a bad idea. Like someone said earlier, he should have went farther.

This guy gets it right, everyone else missed the boat. The guy's not a dumbass, this actually was a brilliant idea. The guy ESCAPED the police in the cab. He only got caught later on in the week when they talked to his friends/did investigation that led them to him. No one can escape from that, can't fault this suspect.

studebaker hoch:WTF are you going to steal from a golf course?


Years ago when I worked as a caddy, someone broke into the caddyshack (where members happend to store their clubs) after hours and stole a whole bunch of expensive drivers and putters. Like the high-end Taylor Made and Ping stuff. The course thought it was a caddy. Without going into the details, they made all the caddies pay for it.
