> DESOTO, Mo., Aug. 30 (UPI) – A nude man doing the hula was supposed to distract the clerk at Fish’s Quick Stop in DeSoto, Mo., but instead it got the man and his friends arrested.
> 
> The naked man was allegedly supposed to distract store Clerk Vicky Gaines while one of his underage friends stole some beer, KMOV-TV, St. Louis, reported Thursday.
> 
> “Basically, a guy coming in, standing there naked and doing the hula,” said Gaines, who was not distracted. “He was just standing there and saying, asking if you’d like some of this, and I told the cops, I have a naked man in my doorway with a mask on can you come up here.”

There are no words… :smack:

No comment on the OP’s news story, but rather on the thread title: A good female hula dancer can manage to be naked no matter what she’s wearing. The same might be true of the males, as well, but I don’t pay as much attention to them.

In this day and age, are you kidding? It happened up the road from me…Fish’s is where I buy gas. Anyway, according to the folks there, and the local paper (the New Democrat Journal), manager “Hawkins…watched the whole incident on the store’s security tape.” Additionally, the paper states, "De Soto Police Chief Brian Werner, who watched the video, said the incident was pretty funny. "

In all, 3 guys (two 19-year-olds and a 22-year-old) got arrested for a 30-pack of beer, worth $13.89.
