NEWARK OHIO'S INFAMOUS MOTORIZED BAR STOOL

BECOME THE WINNING BIDDER OF A UNIQUE ITEM WITH IT'S VERY OWN SONG!

This is the motorized bar stool that was featured nationwide when a local resident was charged with a DUI after he crashed and sustained injuries while driving around his neighborhood. After the story broke a local country music artist composed a song about it. Even Ripley’s Believe It or Not wanted this one-of-a-kind item and now it can be yours!

This (in)famous bar stool was confiscated by the Licking County Sheriff’s Department in Newark, Ohio on behalf of the Licking County Child Support Enforcement Agency.

All proceeds of this auction will go towards satisfying the $37,000 in overdue child support incurred by the previous owner.

Well, in this case looks like the government will make more off of whatever court fees and fines Mr. Wygle has to pay for his DUI than on the forfeiture of his vehicle.
