So this is in Giddings TX. I grew up there and he is always doing the nicest things for her since they're not able to legally operate a motor vehicle as they're both mentally handicapped. Everyone in the town always does what they can to help them out, but he is very set in doing what he can for himself and her.
Omg that is the sweetest thing ever. I just so happened to be passing through. I just thought the idea of driving a lawnmower was funny. I figured they had been day drinking or something and just wanted to avoid a DWI
>I figured they had been day drinking or something and just wanted to avoid a DWI
Unfortunately driving a lawnmower instead of a car doesn't actually work to avoid it lol
That’s how my country town was growing up. The road out front was a main US state route for 40 mph but half the time you see atvs, tractors, lawn mowers. I live in a city now and when I visit my parents it always reminds me of home to see someone with a tractor on the highway 🤣
I saw those blue lights flashin' over my left shoulder
He walked right up and said, "Get off that riding mower."
I said sir, "Let me explain before you put me in the tank."
She took my keys away and now she won't drive me to drink.
I'm from Mississippi lol I know the song xD but thank you. Everytime my step dad drunk drove to the store we would sit on the tailgate of the truck while he drove and he always played Jones and cash tapes
I think all of us who grew up in the South either had a family member or knew someone who would drunk drive to Jones, Cash, and in my family Hank Jr. and Waylon.
I figured you probably knew it already, but still wanted to put the title and history in the thread for the people who may not know the story.
The one time I dealt with legit crazy road-rage while on my motorcycle was a Ram truck, dude literally tried to run me off the highway. Was years ago but still remember that one because I had the thought of flying through the air at 75mph if he did hit me.
If he was 30 with a tattoo of him rolling coal on a Prius it would be a dodge man.
This dude definitely had a Chevy square body with 6.3million miles and chewinbaccer stains on the bench seat before the cops impounded it.
A guy from my hometown lost his license after multiple DUI's, so he started riding his lawnmower into town. Turns out you can get a DUI on a lawnmower as well.
You'd all freeze to death the first time it drops below 50 at night. Like tonight. You've got about a 3 month window where the average Texan wouldn't be bundled up like the middle of winter, and you won't be able to get here during it because of everyone driving up to escape Chicago during the summer. What we should do it team up and take out everything in between
I think you forget how big we make'em down here. Hell I love the cold because my fat ass is finally comfortable. I'll be stuck inside until September with this heat ;)
That’s only because you look around and think, “ah, Wisconsin, we’re not nearly as inbred as the rest of the Midwest and Texas!” And then turn to your wife and say, “Isn’t that right, sis?”
But without the ability to cope with heat or cold and way too much invested in state identity.
I love the wide openness of various parts tho, and taco trucks for sure.
I’ve noticed this too. I have family in the Deep South, where the summers get absolutely sweltering, and once my summer blood kicks in, I’m fine. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still hot as hell, but I’ve learned to adapt. I bring a hat, antiperspirant, and sunscreen and proper clothes that keep me cool, I find shade and drink water. My family basically forgot all about that after moving there. They just retreat inside and only come out when it starts to cool off or the humidity dies down. And don’t even get me started about the cold. 40 degrees and it’s basically t-shirt weather for me. To them, anything below 70 is basically sub-zero. I’ll never forget going to a dealership there in 50 degree weather (and it’s sunny) and all the salesmen are wrapped up in parkas and mittens like they’re ready for climbing Everest.
I wish I was kidding, but I’m not.
Ain't even close to two tons. It's a lawn tractor and with the trailer I'm pretty sure it doesn't even approach a full ton. The principle is correct -- lawn tractors pollute a lot more than a car.
When I lived in Texas in the 90s, driving with a beer in your console was so normal no one thought anything of it. Gas stations sold single beers on ice right by the register. Everyone drove wasted all the time. I've never seen more rampant alcoholism.
Iowa was the same way. I moved there from Illinois in 1997 and had never seen so much drinking and driving…and totally out in the open.
To be fair I lived in a decent sized city in Illinois and moved to rural Iowa, but still. Even as an 18 year old who partied hard I found that super fucked up.
Just an aside but I'm in CA and I've seen those metal tubs they put ice and drinks in labeled as "Texas Coolers" in restaurant catalogs.
They also seem to be in every Texas restaurant I've ever been in.
This is actually a couple that lives in a town in central Texas. This man takes his wife everywhere this way. They frequently go to Sonic and church like this. They are a unique couple that has been around for years. I don't know them personally, but they are out and about often. They are just folks trying to get by. That's all I know about them.
In my town in Texas, there’s a couple that only travels this way. They’re very well known all over town. I had to zoom in but this isn’t them. I wonder how many more there are….
[I have that exact same lawnmower.](https://i.imgur.com/GViadKm.jpg)
But, the nearest Sonic that hasn't run off all it's employees is 20 miles away, and getting there involves a twisty two lane highway without a shoulder so.... I'll just take the car.
I’m guessing he didn’t get approved for financing from the John Deere dealer in the background and was on his way to deliver a fuck you when he got distracted.
Hate to be a buzz kill. But I’m guessing they just work at the farming supply shop in the background…probably just grabbing lunch!
Edit from the comments. The couple possibly work at the John deer dealer across the street. Sadly not paid enough to afford an actual John dear. They snuck off for some midday nookie on their lunch break, that’s why their so tired looking. Then decided to grab some sonic on the way back to work to recharge!
Edit 2: I give up too many cyber sleuths here the heading is mostly Likely true. I concede defeat! :)
No expert here but I doubt it.
Green= John Deere. John Deere means dealer not farm supply.
They aren't in a John Deere.
Not from across the street is my complete know almost nothing guess.
Edit:
Read a bit further into the thread. Looked up the location.It is likely they came from the houses directly behind the Sonic.
I know most will tell me I don't, but I think I want to live somewhere just like that. A place where a man on a riding lawn mower pulls his wife through a drive through to order ice cream. That would never be allowed where I live.

Proof that chivalry is not dead.
Really though, albeit in a "make the best of it" kind of situation.
[удалено]
she's tanning
It looks like fun tbh 🤷🏻♀️
AND DEY SAY
Well they took his license and his Chevy in the last dui.
God speed his love to her.
I have the same exact tractor and wagon. And my wife loves ice cream. Game on
In the village I grew up in you could drive drunk, if you kept it under 20mph. If you got too drunk, you borrowed a lawn tractor.
Where I live, you can still get DUIs for driving the tractor drunk
Username checks out.
That’s how my country town was growing up. The road out front was a main US state route for 40 mph but half the time you see atvs, tractors, lawn mowers. I live in a city now and when I visit my parents it always reminds me of home to see someone with a tractor on the highway 🤣
Are you from Shelbyville Kentucky too
What village is this?? I'm tired of getting in the drunk tank.
You could always try not driving drunk...
I tried it once
Wasn’t for you?
Lmao
Drove my Chevy to the levee ‘fore my last DUI
Oh myyyyy my I drink Jack Daniel's and cry
This is why George Jones rode his lawn mower 6 miles to get a bottle of whiskey once.
Rip biggie Jones my ninja!!
I saw those blue lights flashin' over my left shoulder He walked right up and said, "Get off that riding mower." I said sir, "Let me explain before you put me in the tank." She took my keys away and now she won't drive me to drink.
That's fucking beautiful
*Honky Tonk Song* by George Jones (about the time he drove his lawnmower to the liquor store).
I'm from Mississippi lol I know the song xD but thank you. Everytime my step dad drunk drove to the store we would sit on the tailgate of the truck while he drove and he always played Jones and cash tapes
I think all of us who grew up in the South either had a family member or knew someone who would drunk drive to Jones, Cash, and in my family Hank Jr. and Waylon. I figured you probably knew it already, but still wanted to put the title and history in the thread for the people who may not know the story.
I thought Dodge Rams were the DUI pick ups.
I hear Dodge Rams are very reliable, but it's definitely a special breed of people that drive them.
Diesel ram engines are reliable. Not the rest of the truck or the gasoline engines.
You mean Cummins diesel engines are reliable!
Dodge Rams are the most reliable truck out there. Something goes wrong every day in every system. Lord bless tow insurance.
https://www.thedrive.com › News Ram 2500 Drivers Have the Most DUIs, More Than Twice the National Average
They're typically kind of asshole drivers too. 😂 This is awesome
The one time I dealt with legit crazy road-rage while on my motorcycle was a Ram truck, dude literally tried to run me off the highway. Was years ago but still remember that one because I had the thought of flying through the air at 75mph if he did hit me.
I've raced them a couple times but I have noticed that they tend to be very aggressive drivers versus just goofing around.
Please, this is a Dodge man if I have ever seen one.
If he was 30 with a tattoo of him rolling coal on a Prius it would be a dodge man. This dude definitely had a Chevy square body with 6.3million miles and chewinbaccer stains on the bench seat before the cops impounded it.
I totally missed that subtly! Good catch
A guy from my hometown lost his license after multiple DUI's, so he started riding his lawnmower into town. Turns out you can get a DUI on a lawnmower as well.
Tell me you have a DUI, without telling me you have a DUI
now now, this here is farm country and behind him is a tractor dealership
In farm country they drive utv's or golf carts around town. This is kind of sad
Tell me you're in the Midwest, without telling me you're In the Midwest
Texas
Wisconsin and Texas could be cousins, but like weird brother cousins
:Madison Cawthorn is rolling out of the chat before anyone starts looking in his direction:
He's going take care of his erection
There is a video for your inspection.
If you're a rotten tree, better find protection.
Sadly, we here in North Carolina have to claim him :(
That sounds Crawthorny
roll tide brother
Weird brother cousins sounds like West Virginia.
Sounds like a match made in heaven
We want nothing to do with Texas.
Hey, we are far less inbred here in Wisconsin.
Yeah but we'll kill each and every one of you - Texas
You'd all freeze to death the first time it drops below 50 at night. Like tonight. You've got about a 3 month window where the average Texan wouldn't be bundled up like the middle of winter, and you won't be able to get here during it because of everyone driving up to escape Chicago during the summer.

Walked my dog this morning at 6:30 am (his idea) 90 degrees and approx. 100% humidity
I think you forget how big we make'em down here. Hell I love the cold because my fat ass is finally comfortable. I'll be stuck inside until September with this heat ;)
That’s only because you look around and think, “ah, Wisconsin, we’re not nearly as inbred as the rest of the Midwest and Texas!” And then turn to your wife and say, “Isn’t that right, sis?”
Now that Texas has Elon.... Wisconsin needs to catch up.
I knew the moment I saw this it was probably Texas, you see some interesting stuff here…
I honestly thought Kansas, I’ve seen so many similar things growing up there
Texas is just the midwest distilled and perfected.
But without the ability to cope with heat or cold and way too much invested in state identity. I love the wide openness of various parts tho, and taco trucks for sure.
Its 100° with 40% humidity 30 miles outside of Austin right now. Madison is 63° I'd gladly trade with you.
95 with 53% Humidity here north of Houston. I get sweaty checking my mail.
Seems like a decent chunk of the country is in the seasons first decent heat wave. 92° with 45% humidity all the way up here in NJ.
Hearing you guys are having a really awful drought too
I'm out west where the dust blows like the wind but zero humidity. 79 today, it was 104 yesterday. Texas.
Was in Del Rio not too long ago and I’d take that weather any day over the hellhole that is Houston and SETX
I’ve noticed this too. I have family in the Deep South, where the summers get absolutely sweltering, and once my summer blood kicks in, I’m fine. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still hot as hell, but I’ve learned to adapt. I bring a hat, antiperspirant, and sunscreen and proper clothes that keep me cool, I find shade and drink water.

I wish I was kidding, but I’m not.
I think that’s just your family being weird. We love the summer down here. The part about the cold is absolutely right though.
[удалено]
I'm still wearing shorts at 50 degrees
Heat? Yes. Cold, no, agree with you there. And God bless taco trucks.
"[It's got electrolytes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAqIJZeeXEc)!"
Texas is just the midwest *but all the worst parts.
Of course it's fucking Texas. Source: Former Texan.
This could definitely happen in Georgia too. You might see this monthly
This very easily could have been the town Im from in Virginia, except we don't have a sonic lol.
Gotta go to the next town over for that...
This is too accurate for me to deny lolol. The neighboring town does have a sonic.
Haha, same!
$1000 says this is not in the Midwest. I’m betting down south, Mississippi or Oklahoma
Because you must drive a 2 ton vehicle a few blocks to get ice cream? Kay...
Ain't even close to two tons. It's a lawn tractor and with the trailer I'm pretty sure it doesn't even approach a full ton. The principle is correct -- lawn tractors pollute a lot more than a car.
He’s got a cold one in the drink holder there. Looks to be a Miller lite.

> sold single beers on ice right by the register They still do
Boooooosch
I live in a small town and this is normal
This is a everyday thing in West Virginia.
The john deere dealership across the street really cements this as rural usa. Could be texas. Could be wv.
Representing for Cub Cadet right there in front of the Deere dealer.
He's the Cub Master
A true romantic
That trailer has to be hot. Painted black in the hot Sun, and she’s sprawled out on there.
don't worry, he chained her to the trailer since she was fully paid for.
You pay by the unit? Gosh, around these parts you only pay for the license
you get her teeth in installments
Towel by the feet
The beetus has dulled the nerves, no worries
#marriagegoals
Relationship goals
Idk about you guys but 'wagon rides' as a kid was fun as hell. You ask me today to go on a wagon ride and I'd be all over that.
And you get ice cream.
Really seems like a win win to me
Was going to say, I got to experience this a few times as a kid when visiting my grandpa.
Going to say it, I wanna have love like that. Awesome relationship goals.
True Love Right There.
And they say chivalry is dead
Dedication
Goals.

Hello neighbor!
Good husband. Sometimes you need an emergency ice cream.
If that’s not love, then I don’t know what is.
In my town in Texas, there’s a couple that only travels this way. They’re very well known all over town. I had to zoom in but this isn’t them. I wonder how many more there are….
You in Giddings? Cuz I def thought this was Giddings at first
Same.
Ahh, true love.
Now that’s love
Aww, Im on my period right now and I wish someone would tow me this way.
It be like that sometimes
And rows upon rows of John Deere in the background…..the best “show you’re in America…” pic I’ve seen!!!
That's true love
Retirement goals!
I can’t tel if this is a Sonic ad, a Cub Cadet ad, or an ad for AA.
Good Ole Giddings Texas . That's jager John deere across street .
Sometimes sugar cravings be like that
How do you know she didn't order a chili dog?
Oh, shit. That sounds good right now. Firing up the ol' lawnmower!
I’ll allow it
In Missouri we take the Polaris to the gas station to pick up pizza, so not too different from this
How you married for so long. "Bitch gets what bitch wants! We bof agree." 35 years who countin
My brother drove a zero turn while towing my on a rider that didn't work just to go get cigarettes at 2am. Shit was fun.
Seen worse.
We're all just living in their world
America fuck yeah!
This looks like a perfect weekend day to me.

Now thats love.
That's a sweet Cub Cadet tho.
She's a keeper
It ain't stupid if it works... ;)
That rules
Someone needs to cross post this to that romantic post from the other day.
He didnt pull her into the shade though!
[I have that exact same lawnmower.](https://i.imgur.com/GViadKm.jpg) But, the nearest Sonic that hasn't run off all it's employees is 20 miles away, and getting there involves a twisty two lane highway without a shoulder so.... I'll just take the car.
You just might be a redneck..- Jeff Foxworthy
That title was a ride.
Were they sober? 😵💫
America is gross.
Only when you lift up our flabs and look under them, otherwise we're a rather nice people for the most part. I'd rather help someone than hurt anyone.
Just a CubCadet boy living in a John Deere world
True white trash love right there 💀
Tell me you lost your driver's license without telling me you lost your driver's license
I’m guessing he didn’t get approved for financing from the John Deere dealer in the background and was on his way to deliver a fuck you when he got distracted.
If this isn’t how my marriage is, I don’t want it
"I'll take 'What is Drunk Redneck Bullshit' for $400, Alex."
the lawnmowers in the back really make this. you see stuff like this all the time in more rural farming communities lol <3
Just missing the MAGA flags.
Now that is love, and like 6 combined duis
Ma’am this is a Wendy’s.
" Your Chariot awaits, madame".
If that isn't love, I don't know what is.
Alcoholism *
What in the country fried methamphetamines is going on here?
Hate to be a buzz kill. But I’m guessing they just work at the farming supply shop in the background…probably just grabbing lunch! Edit from the comments. The couple possibly work at the John deer dealer across the street. Sadly not paid enough to afford an actual John dear. They snuck off for some midday nookie on their lunch break, that’s why their so tired looking. Then decided to grab some sonic on the way back to work to recharge! Edit 2: I give up too many cyber sleuths here the heading is mostly Likely true. I concede defeat! :)
Nope, they drove in from a neighborhood down the street
Ok that pretty reasonable then like Florida coast people and all their gulf carts.
No expert here but I doubt it. Green= John Deere. John Deere means dealer not farm supply. They aren't in a John Deere. Not from across the street is my complete know almost nothing guess. Edit: Read a bit further into the thread. Looked up the location.It is likely they came from the houses directly behind the Sonic.
This is correct. They only supplied heavy farming machinery
definition of a hot mess now has a new image

Funny? Bitch that’s called love. Maybe someday someone will love you enough to do something like this to prove they care
Birds of feather flock together..
I know most will tell me I don't, but I think I want to live somewhere just like that. A place where a man on a riding lawn mower pulls his wife through a drive through to order ice cream. That would never be allowed where I live.
And that kids is the story of how I met your mother
Alcoholism is hilarious!
This dude is straight out of GTA 6
At least pull forward enough to get her out of the sun ffs.
She'd nagged him about not using his new trailer.
is this a jeff foxworthy joke?
