And no, this was not Florida.

45-year-old Andrew Cheadle reportedly told Modesto police that he had an accident, and when he could not remove his underwear, he attempted to use a lighter to burn them off, according to the Modesto Bee.

Cheadle then tossed the burning underwear in a toilet, extinguishing the fire and generating enough smoke to fill the bathroom. The Walgreens, at Standiford Avenue and Carver Road, was evacuated shortly thereafter, at about 9:20 a.m.

The suspect exited the store after admitting to employees that he had started the fire. Police found and arrested him in a nearby neighborhood, but not but not on suspicion of the pants fire. According to the Bee, Cheadle had two felony warrants issued from Sacramento.

3. How idiotic...

I've heard of some bathroom activities resulting in rapid evacuation of the premises, but this one wins the stupid of the day door prize: A signed full size cardboard cutout of Donald J. Trump.

5. Modesto California..

I have heard rumors......just rumors.........that there are some people in California...that ...well................they need some help, ..as do the people in Florida.........now..I am not here to in anyway knock California, nice people there. But maybe this fellow, with the pants on fire, was a republican that needed new pants or something.??

7. There are 2 types of people.

Those of us who admit to setting their pants on fire in a washroom, and those of you who deny it.

9. The real news here is

the guy isn't from Florida.

10. I believe the person you refer to is known as 'Florida Man' ...

In scientific literature, this terminology is used in a similar way to identifiers such as 'Cro-Magnon Man' or 'Neanderthal Man' ...

15. This is just the tip of the iceberg for this fella

A guy doesn't set crap filled undwear on fire in a Walgreens restroom without having some skeletons in the closet. This is a job for Law and Order - SVU.
