The Inspector Gadget Bandit in Fort Worth :-O

[Classified00]

"According to a Parker County sheriff's office news release, officials had dubbed the bank robbery suspect "Inspector Gadget Bandit" because of a disguise he wore in two of the robberies – a fedora hat, overcoat and dark glasses."

I'm thinkin' that, even with the get-up, I'd be hard-pressed to liken the fella to the Inspector.

Agreed, but if his hat had a light and he left of gadget skates???
No he still just doesn't have what it takes.

Banditry's bad and all, and I'm glad he's been apprehended, but if he had been wearing a leather jacket, I wonder if they would have labeled him the "Indiana Jones bandit..." alright, now that sounded weird.

Hilarious post.

I get the Inspector Gadget thing all the time, I wear a fedora and I frequently wear my Ray Ban aviators.

I better stay away from Texas.lol

I lived in Houston, Texas. In Texas people have a lot more respect for fedoras and real hats in general. That is one of the last places in the USA you will hear stupid comments about your hat. People in Texas are generally very respectful.
