On Halloween, a man was arrested for drunk driving while dressed as a breathalyzer. Here’s the story from thesmokinggun.com:

>>Halloween Reveler Dressed As Breathalyzer Busted For Drunk Driving

In the most amusing meta moment from the Halloween police blotter, a Nebraska man dressed as a portable Breathalyzer machine was arrested for drunk driving.

Matthew Nieveen, 19, was busted early Monday for DUI and being a minor in possession of alcohol. Nieveen, pictured in the police photo, was collared after a Lincoln cop pulled over his Ford F-150 after the teenager was spotted driving erratically. Though cops identified Nieveen, they decided to black out his face in a photo snapped post-arrest.

Nieveen’s blood alcohol level was more than twice the state’s .08 limit (though he wasn’t supposed to be drinking in the first place). A search of his truck turned up a bottle of vodka and beer.

Last Halloween, an Ohio college student wearing a similar Breathalyzer costumewas busted for drunk driving and underage drinking.<<

Sigh. There’s going to be an endless supply of “stupid criminal” stories, so stay tuned!

Here’s a video with funny Halloween costumes, including another Breathalyzer:
