Oh to be young and stupid again, when we probably all did some pretty stupid things. But we probably will never do anything to top Florida Man's drunken escapade that included a life-size manatee mannequin.

FLORIDA MAN STRIKES AGAIN!

DATELINE - St. Petersburg and the Saga of Florida man Anthony Lessa.

Listen, we probably all have at least one ridiculous story from when we were young and stupid. Well, Anthony's going to have a pretty wild one to tell.

He was arrested a few days ago after an outburst at a restaurant which included throwing gator nuggets. Those are like chicken nuggets, but just with alligator meat.

Seems Anthony had been overserved at some point and someone confronted him at this restaurant. That was the point at which Anthony ran over to a life-size manatee mannequin, which was outside the restaurant wearing a t-shirt that said, "Did someone say tacos?"

Well, let's just say Anthony got a little amorous with the mannequin.

According to the police report, they didn't go into a lot of detail about what exactly happened, and that's probably for the best.

At any rate, when he was done making out or whatever it was he was doing with the mannequin, Anthony ran away to a nearby hotel, where he started to yell and curse at workers from the parking lot.

When police arrived at the scene, Anthony was demanding to know why he was being arrested.

He's been charged with disorderly intoxication and disturbance.

Did I also mention that Anthony is a student pilot at a flight school in Florida? Remind me not to get on an airplane with him anytime soon.
