Hilariously Cheesy St Patrick's Day Warning From an Iowa Police Department

The Ames Police Department in Iowa used one of their regular “Quick Tips” videos to get in some St Patrick’s Day advice on Friday, March 16. “We would rather you find the gold at the end of the rainbow, than our handcuffs at the end of your celebration,” Officer Eric Snyder begins. First up is a warning regarding the legality of pinching. It’s “technically assault, especially if you pinch a stranger," he says. Then Snyder recommends designating a sober driver. "If you have to do math to determine if you should be driving, don't," he says. "Alcohol makes both math and driving more difficult." His final tip? “Take it easy on the green clothing and accessories, if you don’t follow the other rules, at least you won’t look ridiculous in your mugshot.” Credit: Ames Police Department via Storyful
