Here we go. Okay, Hi, I love it.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
It is that time here on iHeartRadio where we do
have to chase down Florida man and or Florida.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Woman and follow all their exploits, which we do every day.
In this you'll call WTF and that stands for what
the florid.

it's the end of the year.

This is the.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Top three Florida Man stories of twenty twenty five. Tune
a little countdown and we go first to Miami. You
know what they say about Miami, Hey, sunny place for
shady people.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
According to this, there's a Florida.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Man that dined and dashed at five different sports grills locations.
Now apparently he really likes the sports grill and does
not like to pay. According to this, he accumulated six
hundred and fifty dollars in unpaid tabs at various sports
grill locations across Miami. Followed the same script. Every time
(01:16):
he would sit alone at the bar, he'd order some beer,
some wings, some shots, and then he'd say, oh, my
wife is outside. Once his takeout order was ready for
his wife, he would go outside to deliver the food.
And then poof, he was gone. He did the same
move every time. He's like, yeah, I'll settle my tab
in a minute, let me get my takeoff food. My
(01:37):
wife's outside, I'll go run this to her real quick.
I'll be right back, and then he'd take off.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
I mean, if it were I mean, he pushed his
luck quite a few right. Damn.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
On one occasion he even waited for the bartender to
grab him some extra sauce before he left. Okay, damn,
you know what a monster he spent at one location
at the sports grill.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
He spent four hours at the bar.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
He was drinking Don Julio and all kinds of food
and other whatnot, and then he just skipped out on
his tab as usual. Juan Carlos Rivera, forty was identified
by a photo lineup and he was arrested on charge
of organized scheme to defraud and defrauding an innkeeper.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
And according to the judge, they say, you need to
stay away from supports grill, sir, everywhere else is safe.
That's right. Ah wow, we go next heading the sports Girl.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
In our year end countdown of some of the best
Florida man slash woman stories of all this was one
of my favorites that happened this year in twenty twenty five,
and I hate to say that it is a favorite
because children were scarred.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Let's face it. As Charles Entertainment.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Cheese was arrested in front of kids in Tallahassee. I
don't even remember the story. It was at a Chuck
E Cheese and Chuck E Cheese.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Himself in the suit.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
He was wearing the suit and everything with a head
full on the whole deal. He was arrested for credit
card fraud. Apparently he had been ripping off people's credit
cards and the cops came to arrest him for this
stolen credit card. Bodycam footage shows the officers approaching the
forty one year old Jermel Jones, who was in fact
(03:16):
wearing the whole Chucky Cheese costume. The place was busy
as hell. According to this, they say he was resisting.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
At one point.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
The cop even said you can hear it on bodycam,
Come on, Chucky, stop resisting.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
He didn't call him chucky, o him chucky? First of all?
Could those poor kids got to be traumatized seeing right,
little Chuck E Cheese getting arrested on the body cam.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
You hear one kid going oh no, whi while the
mother is telling the police you're traumatizing the kids.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
The mom says, would you put mickey and handcuffs? Would
you put Mickey mouse and handcuffs? Like this? Now here's
the other thing.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
They didn't even lead him out through the back, like,
they didn't let him, you know, get changed into his
street clothes or anything like that, and then take him
out of the back. Oh no, in handcuffs, chuck e cheese,
full head suit, everything right out front door.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Yeah, they could have just dangled some cheese. That's right,
that's right, and then wait till after the shift. Damn.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
My favorite story of the year lastly, and that is
because it is a local hero. This is a Florida
man and his name is Kyle. Kyle Myivitt is his name.
He's from Cape Coral and Kyle, while wearing his Batman pajamas,
(04:31):
stopped a burglar in his tracks and detained.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Him until the cops got there.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
No wearing Batman pajamas, Yes, very fitting.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Just after two am. This was back in August.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
The Cape Coral Police Department responded to a burglary call.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
At the home of Kyle Myyvitt.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
He apprehended a suspect while wearing his Batman onsie pajamas.
He told the detectives that he had just gone to
bed and his home security cameras alerted him to somebody
breaking into his vehicle. While wearing his Batman pajamas, Kyle
saw man going through his truck before finding him in
his neighbor's garage, and then detained him until the cops
got there.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
That is amazing. The power came from the pants. I
love it exactly. He had his bat Batman panties.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Can you imagine, though, you're the burglar and you just
got detained by a guy wearing a Batman onesie pajamas,
you know, Yeah, like you've got like.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
The footy pajamas, you know what I mean? Like it
would be the only way I want to go out.
It's true.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Yeah, if I'm going to be detained by anybody in
the neighborhood, it's gonna have to be a guy wearing
a Batman onesie.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Batman would be cool, It's right, Cops, is that's so close.
I love it.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Everybody does that, But getting stopped by Batman, Yeah, that's different.
And he's a cape Coral. Hero is what Kyle My
vid is. So thank you Kyle for your hard work
out there in Cape Coral. All right, well that was fun.
