Only Florida Man Would Try To Steal Waffle House Tattoo
Nothing says “Florida Man” quite like a guy who tried to steal a Waffle House tattoo.
FLORIDA MAN STRIKES AGAIN!
DATELINE – St. Petersburg and the saga of Florida Man Max Alexander Krejckant, who walked into a tattoo shop in St. Petersburg and asked for something rather well, I think, unusual to be inked on his leg.
I do not have any ink. I have no plans to get any ink. Your mileage may vary on this.
Now, some people put inspirational phrases. Some people put something very important to them. Maybe it’s a team that they root for. Maybe they go really old school and do the whole battleship and mom thing. I don’t know.
At any rate, Florida Man wanted the Waffle House logo to be inked on his right leg. When he was told that the yellow ink in the logo, Waffle House is black and yellow, would cost him an additional $100, he declined that and said, let’s just do black and gray instead.
The bill comes
Now, when it was all done, Florida Man was charged $250 for the ink job.
He refused to pay it.
The owner of the shop then called the police to mediate. But when Florida man refused all other offers to settle his debt, they placed him under arrest. Police patted him down. They found only $6 and his driver’s license on him. He was charged with theft and later bonded out of jail at $150.
$150 appears out of nowhere
Well, now, where did the $150 come from? Did I mention that he was drunk at the time? I think that’s important to this story.
Florida Man has pleaded not guilty, by the way.
In addition to the fresh Waffle House ink, Florida Man also has several other tattoos, including a black and white tribute to Insane Clown Posse on one of his forearms.
By the way, the owner of the tattoo shop said customers occasionally try to walk out without paying for tattoos, but that usually occurs during spring break with drunk college students and not during the holiday season.
