Feast Your Eyes On The Most Pathetic, Hilarious Failed Robbery Attempt In History

YouTube


Sit down, buckle up, and grab some buttered popcorn because what we have for you today is the most pathetic failed criminal attempt in the history of criminals and mini-marts.

A man and a woman in their late 20s entered King Street Reddi Mart in Spruce Grove, Alberta, Canada on Monday afternoon and tried purchasing a can of coke. The clerk became suspicious that the pair were using a stolen credit card when it was declined several times, so he phoned the police.

Spruce Grove Royal Canadian Mounted Police responded to the Reddi Mart around 1:17 p.m. That’s when things heated up. This is a must watch, especially with some genius throwing the SpongeBob music over it.

The couple has now been hit with a wide array of charges including using a stolen credit card, resisting arrest, assaulting a police officer, attempting to disarm a police officer, resisting arrest from someone aiding the police. Oh yeah, and maybe the worst of all, having their faces plastered all over the internet for everyone to mock them.

Try to let this gif play less than 10 times. You can’t.

Matt’s love of writing was born during a sixth grade assembly when it was announced that his essay titled “Why Drugs Are Bad” had taken first prize in D.A.R.E.’s grade-wide contest. The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
