Hello, 911? Can you drive me to the store for some beer?

Don’t you hate it when you drunk dial the worst possible person? Hopefully you’ve never been jailed for it like one man from Columbia, Tenn.

The 67-year-old man, who emergency responders didn't identify, called 911 twice between the hours of 6 a.m. and 5 p.m. Saturday, said Columbia police, and he wasn’t a first-time caller.

Columbia police records show someone from a residence at the 600 block of East 11th Street called 911 at least nine times since July 21. Most of the calls were hang-ups.

During one of the calls Saturday night, the man asked if he could have a ride to the store.

“Hey, you want to take me to the store?” the man asked the dispatcher in a recording of the conversation.
