Motorized LA-Z-BOY


Last summer, 62-year-old Dennis Anderson was arrested for driving under the influence in Proctor, Minnesota (--in the eastern part of the state, just a few miles west of Duluth).

But it wasn't a CAR Dennis was driving. It was a motorized La-Z-Boy recliner that Dennis had tricked out with an old lawnmower engine. Get this . . .

The recliner tops out at somewhere between 15 and 20 miles per hour. And it's totally decked out, complete with:

A stereo and a power antenna

A steering wheel

Headlights

And even cup holders

On Monday, Dennis pleaded guilty to driving under the influence. The recliner, which had been impounded, will be sold at the next police auction.
