Driving a Zamboni drunk puts man on thin ice

THERE'S NOTHING funny about drunk driving.

But you can't help but chuckle after learning a Fargo, N.D., man was sentenced to nine days in jail yesterday after being convicted of DUI while behind the wheel of a Zamboni.

No one was injured on the January night that Steven James Anderson drunkenly drove an ice-resurfacing machine at a girls' high school hockey game.

According to Dana Mogck, a news anchor for Fargo's local ABC affiliate WDAY6, Anderson was weaving on the ice and crashed into the boards several times. At one point, Mogck said Anderson yelled to the PA system operator to "crank" up an AC/DC song.
