Stair Case

Sticking Point For Drunken Wager Over A Tractor

A Polish farmer is facing jail after a drunken bet in which he drove his two-ton tractor (we don’t known if it was a Massey-Ferguson) down a set of stairs in the middle of a town square in Tczew. He said: "After a few vodkas the staircase seemed a lot wider than it really was and nowhere near as steep." But the vehicle got jammed and he fled - only to be caught by police an hour later back in the pub after witnesses gave cops a description.

FOOTNOTE: Messy Ferguson.

I guess he should have taken the elevator.

David, funny story! I know there must be something I'm not getting between Messy Ferguson and Massey Ferguson - maybe it's an Australian thing?
