Natural Born Drunk: The Paul Baldwin Story


good ol' pauly baldwin, that drunk who showed up at fleet st. last year demanding a beer, got arrested for the 154th time this summer. i have to admit, when paul baldwin showed up at the stoop asserting the ridiculous claim of being arrested 152 times, i didn't buy it. but low and behold, he told the truth, and his mugshot appeared in the paper a week later accompanied by a story that he was about to serve a year in jail for stealing a $1.99 tall boy.

now, fresh out of jail, paul baldwin jumped the border into maine, and got nabbed again for stealing two 18 packs and a 12 pack. he might have gotten away, but a rock in clear sight directly across the street from the convenient store was too convenient of a place to start emptying beers into his belly. funny article and wmur video here.

this guy is a legend and deserves more credit. i can't believe the wmur video on youtube only has 154 views. i just hope the guy never sells out like ronnie dobbs did.
