Canadian Man Gets Parking Ticket For ‘Car' Made of Snow
By Ray Downs
Jan. 18 (UPI) -- A Canadian man made a fake car out of snow and got a real parking ticket.
Montreal native Simon Laprise crafted a Back to the Future-style Delorean on the side of his street as part of a prank and he got the results he expect- ed.
"It was a beautiful day," Laprise told Vice. "So I decid- ed to do some- thing out of the mountain of
snow, to do a lit- tle joke to the snow guys, and have fun sculpt- ing a car. It's not my first one, just the first I do in the street on snow removal day."
Laprise sculpted the Delorean to look like a life- size version of Marty McFly's ride had been parked through- out a snow storm for days. He even added indentions for the wheels and windows -- and then threw a spare windshield wiper he found
lying around for a special touch.
The snow car looked real enough that when police came around to look for cars parked on that side of the road during a snow plowing hours, they wrote a tick- et and left it on a windshield made of snow.
Larpise had his last laugh as he posted the pho- tos to Facebook.
"Muhahaha," he wrote.
