Ripley's Denied a Ride on Motorized Bar Stool

The motorized bar stool a moronic mastermind was riding when he got a DUI in April was so cool, Ripley's Believe it or Not just tried to buy it -- but turns out the guy's checkered past got in the way of the sale. Shocker.

Ripley's Believe It Or Not

Ripley's just offered Kyle Wygle $3,500 for the coolest contraption on Earth -- but according to Ripley's, the Licking County Child Support Enforcement Agency begged the company not to buy it because K.W. was $37,066.39 in the hole.

Wygle told us he's now taking the LCCSEA to court -- and even told the agency to "f*** off" -- so he can finally cash in on his idiotic ingenuity.

19. So, almost sick of TMZ, you are a real piece... I grew up with one other sibling in Ohio whose dad owed around 30k in back support and could have just used a fraction of that. Unless you grew up in that situation, type about something you know about or don't comment at all.

21. Jenn: Try not to sweat it. "ALMOST SICK OF TMZ" is a 12 year old boy who spends his days playing with himself in front of his computer screen. His keyboard is a DNA nightmare. He can't help himself. Once (and IF) he loses his virginity, he may have something intelligent to say. MAY. In the meantime, either ignore or laugh at him. I find either works just as well as the other.

22. TMZ kinda missed a lil info. I live in the same town as this idiot an here's the story from the local paper:

Negotiations between Wygle and Ripley Entertainment Inc. broke down after Licking County Child Support Enforcement Agency asked for the stool and any revenue generated from it. Wygle owes $37,066.39 in child support, according to court documents.

The child-support agency filed a petition after hearing of the possible sale, asking that any proceeds from the bar stool be applied toward due child support.

During the April 27 hearing, Licking County Magistrate John C. Berryhill ruled that if Wygle makes any profit from the bar stool, he is to notify the agency and apply that money to what he owes.

24. I actually live in Licking County. Yeah, sad. Every f-ing story that has some jackass doing something stupid is from Ohio. And yes, Ohio CSEA does suck

25. lostinlalaland....thanks. He isnt bothering me. Nothing he said has any bearing on anything in my life. I've been laughing at him all evening. After reading all the other comments, it seems as though I'm not too far off base. And everytime he opens his mouth, he sounds more and more like an incredibly ignorant idiot!

26. Jenn,
Don't let that almost sick of tmz get to you. It's morons like that that do things just to push people's buttons. He or she (or maybe a combo of both) is just a sad person otherwise "it" wouldn't be saying nasty stuff to people it doesn't know.

29. Um, is this child support agency stupid? They could attach that income, which could go to the child. Him having income would be a GOOD thing...
