Weird BUT true

It was a DUI: dancing under the influence.

A man was arrested for drunken driving after he told cops he had “too many” and broke into a dance routine during a field sobriety test.

Jesus Marquez, 60, of Florida, was pulled over after his black BMW was observed swerving.

They said, “I boo.”

The ashes of a Chinese social-media influencer were stolen for use in a “ghost marriage” — a traditiona­l folk custom where nuptials are arranged with a dead person because they believe the deceased needs to get married so their offspring can have prosperity.

Luoxiaomao­maozi’s remains were snatched from a funeral home by three workers who tried to sell the ashes.

A children’s toy sold on Walmart’s Web site has been pulled after a grandmothe­r realized it used swear words and talked about cocaine use.

Ania Tanner said the dancing cactus she purchased for her 15-month-old granddaugh­ter was supposed to be an educationa­l tool that sang songs in English, Spanish and Polish.

Tanner, who happens to speak Polish, realized the ditty in that language was about cocaine, drug abuse, suicide and depression.

The music was a killer. A raucous band at a wedding in India was so loud, it caused the death of 63 chickens.

Poultry farmer Ranjit Kumar Parida said a nearby wedding party was blasting out “ear-splitting noise” and when he tried to tell the band the music was scaring his chickens, the groom’s friends yelled at him.

The chickens ended up dying from heart attacks.

A Florida man went on a rampage at a sushi buffet outside of Tampa because the rolls he wanted weren’t being served.

Paul Mitchell, 52, allegedly started flipping plates of sushi on the hibachi line and then beat up a store manager who filmed the incident.
