A seagull in Marinette , WI has developed the habit of stealing Doritos from a neighborhood convenience store.
The seagull waits until the Manager isn't looking, and then walks into the store and grabs a snack-size bag of cheese Doritos.
Once outside, the bag gets ripped open and shared by other birds.
The seagull's shoplifting started early this month when he first swooped into the store in Marinette , WI , and helped himself to a bag of Doritos. Since then, he's become a regular. He always takes the same type of chips.
The Manager thinks it's great because people are coming to watch the feathered thief make the daily grab and run, and that's good for business, and especially since customers have begun paying for the seagull's stolen bags of Doritos because they think it's so funny. However, the Manager did say, "This is Wisconsin , and if that seagull starts to grab a 6-pac to go along with the Doritos, I may have to put a stop to it."

I saw that film on the news here quite a while ago but I didn't hear where it was. That is so funny to watch.

That is supposed to be a video, and it is working on Photobucket, I don't know why it's not working here.

That's hilarious AND amazing! I'm surprised he hasn't been tracked down for a Dorito add yet.

How funny that is.I think Dorito should pay the manager for the advertising.
