"Man Pleads To La-Z-Boy DWI"

"OCTOBER 22--A Minnesota man arrested last year for drunkenly driving
a motorized La-Z-Boy lounge chair pleaded guilty this week to a DWI
charge. Dennis Anderson, 62, was nabbed after driving his chair into a
parked car, according to a Proctor Police Department report. A
subsequent blood draw showed Anderson's blood alcohol content was .29,
more than three times the legal limit. Anderson's customized vehicle,
seen in the police evidence photos on the following pages, is powered
by an eight horsepower Kohler lawnmower engine, and has a stereo,
headlights, a built-in cup holder, and a "Hell Yeah It's Fast" bumper
sticker. The ride, however, does not have a seat belt."

Four photos of the chair"
