    More complete story, with picture of the La-Z-Boy, through Duluth (Minn.) News-Tribune. Also, the chair was confiscated and will be auctioned.

    Wouldn't this be considered an OUI in most states since it is an unregistered vehicle? #gokarts

    The amount of beer required to get an average man to a 0.29 requires the use of a 'road tube', being he's mobile. #gokarts

    Officer: Sir do you know why I pulled you over?
    Guy: No sir, what did I do?
    Officer: You were clearly reclined in a No-Reclining zone. I see that the tags have been removed also. Sir are you aware that's a felony?
    Guy: No officer I had no id...
    Officer: It clearly states "do not remove under penalty of law." Sir, where did you get this vehicle?
    Guy: Sofa King

    So blowing well below the legal limit becomes a factor when you crash? .029 wouldn't even affect his ring time. #gokarts

    What a cool hobby. What would it be like to do road racing with something like that using more modern motorcycle hardware and say 600cc engines? Body something like this only half-scale?
