A Wisconsin man told a sheriff's deputy he had not been drinking, but rather eating beer-battered fish when he was pulled over for what could be his 10th drunken driving offense, according to an incident report released on Wednesday.
John Przybyla, 73, was stopped for a broken tail light and erratic driving on Oct. 12 by a deputy who then smelled alcohol on his breath and saw that his eyes were blood shot.
The deputy asked Przybyla how much he had had to drink. Przybyla replied that he had not been drinking and instead had eaten beer-battered fish at a fish fry, the report said.
Przybyla was arrested after he failed a field sobriety test and a breath test showed he had been drinking.

Alcohol cooks off when heat is a applied or merely evaporates.

You’re supposed to cook the batter, not use it like tartar sauce.

Beer Battered Fish makes Me Thirsty.
If I make it to his age my eyes will probably be bloodshot too.
Pretty poor defense, and must have a hell of good paying job to afford 9-10 priors, unless he was a Lawyer or Public Servant.
Or he has ticked off a Public Servant and they are messing with him.
Or he is a Drunk that doesn’t give a Rip because his Country has become a Cesspool...
Whatever it may be, he appears to be headed for a new physical fitness program, ie walking.

Beer-Battered Fish? Is that domestic violence against a fish?
