There are generally two types of people who reside in Florida — those who shrug and just shake their heads at the day-to-day psychosis in this state, and those who generate that reaction. Get ready to meet one of the latter.
Matthew Leatham was arrested this week when in the pre-dawn, post-revelry hours, he tried to secure for himself a means of travel. In doing so he repeatedly called 911 in order to get a ride home. The folks over at The Smoking Gun were kind enough to share Matthew’s mug shot.

He got tired of getting pulled over for DUI in Alabama and not being able to answer the question "Son, where you headed?"

It’s not a tattoo, it’s a birthmark. He’s the one true Florida Man that legends have spoken of.

That would at least give him a workable excuse for what happened. For the record, we severely doubt that is what happemed.
