PA Man Arrested For Playing Possum

By Wyatt Earp | March 27, 2010

Note to readers: If I ever get this drunk, one of you can shoot me in the skull.

State police have charged a central Pennsylvania man with public drunkenness after he was seen giving mouth-to-mouth “resuscitation” to a long-dead opossum along a highway.

Trooper Jamie Levier says several witnesses saw 55-year-old Donald Wolfe, of Brookville, near the animal along Route 36 in Oliver Township Thursday about 3 p.m. The trooper says one person saw Wolfe kneeling before the animal and gesturing as though he were conducting a seance, while another saw the mouth-to-mouth attempt.

Levier says Wolfe was “extremely intoxicated” and “did have his mouth in the area of the animal’s mouth, I guess.”

I can’t wait until I go to CPR training and ask the instructor if he has any rodent dummies to practice on.

    Yeah, I had to post that one too. I had this great vision of the guy doing drunken Uri Geller moves to magically revive the road kill. Classic.

    BTW, did you get the art I sent–or the link, I can’t remember–good sidebar material.

    I’m VERY sure that I would pass out and die of liver failure before getting that drunk, but that’s just me :-)

    That idiot better get himself tested and treated for possible rabies. Either that or he’ll be a candidate for the Darwin Awards soon.

    Ten bucks says that either mead or moonshine was involved.

    I’ve been to Brookville. I’m not surprised.

    RT – Definitely belongs on the Wall of Weird.

    Jon – Or he’s a necrophiliac.

    cbullitt – I’ll check my e-mail.

    Roger – As would I. I turned 21 during a lacrosse trip to Virginia Beach. My team gave me 21 vodka shots for the event. I am told I finished them, but I don’t remember doing so. Even then, I just passed out afterward.

    Wai – Foaming at the mouth is probably the rush he is looking for.

    Dixie – Or (God forbid) both.

    GroovyVic – White Trash Heaven?

    Danny – Think about the children possum!

    (twitch) Mead AND shine in the same night? Isn’t that like crossing the streams?

    The dude has to be some kin of my father-in-law’s girlfriend. Mouth-to-mouth on possums, CPR on squirrels…sounds like he could be her long lost twin. >.<

    Dixie – As Igon Spangler said, “That would be bad.”

    Snigs – What the Hell is the compression rate for a squirrel?

    10 tons per square inch to crush them into a 1/2 inch cube? Viola…Squirrel bullion!

    “Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.”

    Sounds about right.
