Man Gets Too Drunk, So He And The Horse He Rode In On Sleep It Off. In The Lobby Of A Bank.

BERLIN — A drunk man decided he couldn’t make it home, so he, and the horse he rode in on, slept it off in the lobby of a bank just southwest of Berlin.

An early-morning customer discovered the two when he entered the bank to use the automatic teller machine.

The horse’s owner, identified only as Wolfgang H., told the newspaper Bild that he had “a few beers” with a friend in Wiesenburg the night before.

Police said Tuesday that the 40-year-old machinist was on his way home when he decided to sleep it off inside the heated foyer of the bank.

Confronted with the lack of a hitching post, he brought the six-year-old horse, named Sammy, in 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.

As to the cleanup: It appears Sammy made his own after hours deposit on the carpet.

JOKESTARTERS:

• After all the BS we all get from banks, it makes sense that Sammy the horse left his own deposit.
• Does anyone else other than me wonder how this guy and his horse got into the lobby of a closed bank? Maybe this bank has an after-hours slot for drunks and the horses they rode in on?
