A Swiss motorist was horrified to find he had hit a dog with his car - only to find that it was a 25-year-old man in a canine costume.
The dog-eared and drunken man had been at a stag party dressed as a pooch. On his way home, it is believed he lay down in the middle of the road to rest.
Despite being dragged 120 feet by the car, the man-dog was not badly hurt because of the padding from his costume.

i wonder if a belly bouncing sumo suit would be a better choice for drunks to wear while wondering into the roadway...

Similar thing happened in an episode of CSI called "Fur and Loathing in Las Vegas"

CSI had an episode like that last season, except the guy was dressed in a raccoon suit and an area resident mistook him for a coyote and shot him.

Who goes to a stag party dressed as a dog? That's about the gayest thing I've ever heard...

Maybe, but I think a cat suit would be gayer.

Was that the one where they were all humping in a circle on each other's costumes? I don't remember the name of the show but it was CSI. Nasty.

I caught a couple of epi's last year and got hooked. Previously, I didn't have cable and could seldom get a CBS station.
Now, I even watch the SpikeTV older epi's.

On his way home, it is believed he lay down in the middle of the road to rest. I've found much better places to take a nap. Just takes a little more effort.

Note To Self:
If you're going to get snockered and then lay in the middle of the road to rest, be sure to wear your dog costume.
