Women Mistake Firemen on Call For Strippers.
A team of firemen were mobbed by women who believed they were part of the act when they went to tackle a blaze at a strip show.
Hoards of female fans cheered and clapped expecting the team of eight fire fighters to start stripping at the pub on Hard Lane in St Helens, Merseyside.
Unbeknown to the bar's customers a bar stool and carpet had caught alight in the dressing room of the actual dancer who had been using lighter fuel in his own stripping fireman routine
When the uniformed men burst into the pub to tackle the blaze they were greeted with ecstatic cheers of "Gerremoff!" from the women watching the show.
"One lady, shouted, 'Ooo, we've got our money's worth here!"' said watch manager Paul Costello, from Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service.
"Because the fire was in another part of the building they didn't know we had been called out. I think the stripper had just finished his act - he was only wearing a towel."
Drunk Man Parks Horse in German Bank.
I hope this man brought the horse with him to avoid drinking and driving. That thought amuses me to no end.
The Associated Press:
An early-morning German bank customer had a bit of a shock when he found a horse already in line at the automatic teller machine in front of him. It seems the horse's owner, identified only as Wolfgang H., had a bit too much to drink the night before and decided to sleep it off inside the bank's heated foyer, police said Tuesday.
The 40-year-old machinist told Bild newspaper he had had "a few beers" with a friend in Wiesenburg, southwest of Berlin, and decided to hit the hay in the bank on his way home.
"It was late, it was already dark and cold," he was quoted as saying.
Confronted with the lack of a hitching-post, he brought the 6-year-old horse, named Sammy, in along with him.
When a customer came across the horse and sleeping rider in the bank at 4:15 a.m. Monday, he called police, who then came and woke the owner up and sent him on his way.
No charges were filed, but there might be some cleanup needed: Apparently Sammy made his own after-hours deposit on the carpet.
