so much for a clean criminal record

more good news from south carolina! there may be a lot going on in the palmetto state that leaves alot to be desired. sure sure sure, the schools are crap, the governor is crazy, and nobody likes gorillas. but there is one thing you simply cannot take away from them jokers down there: they do NOT tolerate anyone messing with The Scoob!

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- A Carowinds employee was arrested this weekend after allegedly helping someone win a stuffed animal.

Joshua Long, 19, is charged with breach of trust with fraudulent intent, according to a York County Sheriff's Office report.

Deputies say Long is accused of helping someone cheat on a game and win a giant Scooby Doo worth $109.

According to the report, the game involved flipping a ring so that it landed on a bottle. The alleged incident happened Saturday afternoon.

The person who won the Scooby Doo was not charged. Investigators say it's unclear whether the two knew each other.

now, i know what you're thinking. you're thinking how in the world could a stuffed animal be worth $109 and why would anyone want a Scooby Doo, they don't even play the cartoons on tv anymore!

does it qualify as irony that the business accusing an employee of theft is ripping off customers by having them play impossible carny games to try to win a stuffed animal they've marked the price up on?

i know one thing for certain: it seems a wee bit heavy-handed of Carowinds to have this kid arrested over something like this. i mean, it's not like he grew dreadlocks or anything!

cmon, Carowinds! where's the love!
