Valiant Effort Trying To Sneak Alcohol Into Saudi Arabia

FB – Saudi Arabian customs posted a photo on Twitter of a man who was coming in from Bahrain, trying to sneak in a bunch of alcohol under his thawb by stitching it to a pair of pants, and taping it to his butt and calves. Customs noticed the guy was walking kind of funny, so they stopped him, searched him and revealed his booze-up body. Customs said the guy had 14 bottles of alcohol in total, some of which looks like Johnnie Walker Red Label Whiskey, a couple bottles of vodka and some travel-sized alcohol, all neatly strapped to himself. Saudi Arabia doesn’t mess around when it comes to alcohol as those caught in the past have been publicly whipped and beaten, in addition to jail time, according to Daily Mail.

Good job, good effort trying to sneak alcohol into Saudi Arabia. Maybe the dumbest idea in the history of ever though. Quite literally the last thing you want to do as long as you are on this planet is break a law in Saudi Arabia. I would not be shocked if they straight up cut off his legs as punishment. Sounds like a pretty casual Monday morning.

The most important take away from this story though is this guy’s commitment to alcohol. He knew he wasn’t allowed to bring alcohol into Saudi Arabia. He knew that if he was caught they go medieval on his ass and stone him to death, and he just didn’t care. This guy is like me when it comes to alcohol, and that’s something I respect. He’d rather take his chances with death than stay sober. He made a pro’s and cons list, made a venn diagram, made a web, made a pie chart, and came to the conclusion that it was a better idea to risk being tar and feathered in the town square in Saudi Fucking Arabia than not be able to get drunk during his trip. I almost can guarantee there was a woman involved too. The world revolves around 2 things- alcohol, and getting laid, and usually those two will go hand in hand.
