Franklin County deputies south of the metro pulled over a suspected drunk driver in the northbound lanes of Interstate 35.

When they asked the driver to exit his car for a field sobriety test, deputies discovered he wore a Bud Light beer can costume over his clothes.

“A career in law enforcement is exciting, and you get to experience something new every day. Sometimes you see things you can’t believe!” the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office wrote on its Facebook post Saturday morning.
