Soccer Player Mistakes Messy House For Break-In
Occasionally it’s refreshing to see that athlete stupidity isn’t confined to Americans. Witness Newcastle United striker Shola Ameobi, who returned home to find his mansion in such disarray, he assumed it had been broken into. Only later did he realize that — whoops — he had left it that way.
Ameobi came home to find clothing strewn everywhere, and his checkbook missing. In a panic he called the police and detailed a list of all the things missing. As cops were on their way to investigate the break-in, he stumbled across the “stolen” items and had to sheepishly call the police back, and tell them not to bother, because he had left it so messy it just looked like a burglary.
