Detroit Red Wings Prospect Charged With Driving Drunk In Teletubby Costume, Reports Say

[Cynon]

Riley Sheahan isn't just a super prospect for the Detroit Red Wings' organization -- he also faces a "super-drunk" charge after his arrest for drunken driving in Grand Rapids, Mich.

The 20-year-old Grand Rapids Griffins player was pulled over by police on Oct. 29 after driving down the wrong side of the road clad in a purple Teletubbies costume, a character also known to TV fans and small children of the '90s as "Tinky Winky."

What makes it even dumber is he's an AHL player...you know, one of the many leagues that isn't having a lockout. How did he find enough time to do something like this?

So what you are saying is that had I stayed in Michigan last month a few extra days, and drove through Grand Rapids, I could have seen this hilarity?!?

Damn. I always miss out on the good stuff
