From Bail Money To Jail Money
A guy in South Carolina gets tossed in jail for trespassing — nothing major. Next morning, he’s standing in front of the judge, and his bail is set at $250. Easy enough, right?

This dude in Florida really, really wanted a septic tank. First, he shows up to a construction site and tries hauling it off with—wait for it—a Toyota Corolla.
