The Three Reeled Thief

Well, duh – why do you think they call them “One Armed Bandits?”

Man tells 911 slot machine stole his money

A second Florida man has been arrested on charges of making false 911 calls in as many days. An arrest report says 47-year-old Carlos Gutierrez was at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino early Monday and called 911 to say the slot machine stole his money. The report says Gutierrez left the casino to place a second 911 call to say the same thing.

He was arrested and charged with making a false 911 call. He's being held with no bail set.

And in northern Florida last week, a Jacksonville man called 911 to complain that a Subway left the sauce off a spicy Italian sandwich.

You know, I’ve often thought the same thing – “That slot machine ate my money – it was MEAN!” But never have I been tempted to call the Po-Po and whine about it. Maybe he should try 1-800-BETS-OFF next time?

As for the guy pissed that they left the Grey Poupon off of his sammich, well....that IS criminal. He oughta sue. Right now. Get 'er done.
