Hunter Thompson

In the Buenos Aires Herald we find this tidbit… about a drunk British cameraman who stole a taxi outside Cordoba city and drove himself to his hotel to take a nap…

Evidently, the journalist, who was supposed to be covering some kind of Argentine rally for a major English TV station (BBC?) went looking for a cab to take him back to his hotel. Unable to find a taxi with an actual taxi driver, this gonzo journalist, took matters into his own hands… Finding a taxi with the keys in it he stole away with it back to his hotel…

The article didn’t say what happened to this intrepid newsman other than that he was arrested. Quite a Hunter Thompson moment… and that’ll be quite a hang-over in Cordoba prison, ouch…
