The idiot to the right is accused of making one of the stupidest mistakes ever this weekend -- he allegedly drove drunk to a trooper station and then tried checking in ... thinking it was a hotel.
The 25-year-old, Mitchell Deslatte, was booked on DWI in Louisiana after he went into the station and asked a trooper at the desk if it was a hotel.
It's unclear if his cell came with free HBO and a continental breakfast.

We just got the crash report from the police dept. in the Casey Aldridge truck crash. And we've talked to one of the passengers, who says Casey had not hit the bottle.
We broke the story -- Aldridge rolled his truck, causing him and two others to be ejected. Five total were riding in his Ford F-250.
According to the report, "for some unknown reason" Aldridge's truck left the road and ran into a ditch, at around 1:54 AM Sunday. Aldridge drove in the ditch for around 250 feet. That's when Aldridge "overcorrected and lost control" of the truck. It went back on to the road and then rolled over and went another 160 feet.
One of the passengers -- who asked us not to use his name -- told us no one in the truck had been drinking. He said the worst two injuries were a broken collar bone and Casey's fracture. He says the accident was caused when Casey drove too close to the ditch. They were coming back from a fishing trip -- at 1:54 in the morning?

Louisiana State Troopers tell us three of the five people riding in Casey Aldridge's truck (they previously told us only four were in the truck) were ejected during the crash -- and Casey was one of them.
Cops tell us while Casey was heading north on the 606 in Louisiana early this morning, he swerved off the right side of the road and into a ditch, then over-corrected his turn back onto the pavement, causing the car to flip. During the flip, 3 people -- including Casey -- were ejected from the car.
The two others who were ejected refused medical treatment at the scene -- and as we previously reported, Casey was taken to the Riverside Medical Center in Ferriday, La. due to what cops called "moderate injuries."
As for whether alcohol was a factor, cops tell us they didn't speak to Casey for nearly four hours after the crash -- due to his hospitalization -- and when they did, they found no reason to suspect he had been drinking.
Just to put this in perspective, cops told us it's 4x more likely for people to die when they're ejected from a car during a crash -- and all 3 who were ejected survived.
Casey was charged with careless operation of a motor vehicle -- a misdemeanor -- and is currently recovering from his injuries at the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson, Miss.

Casey Aldridge could have been screwed, but got real lucky -- he's going to recover from this morning's car accident.
We just spoke with a close family member/Baptist preacher who says Aldridge did not have surgery, but did suffer mild brain trauma.
As we first reported, Casey and 3 other passengers were in a single car accident early this morning in Louisiana.
His F-250 flipped over and Aldridge was airlifted for treatment.
The family member said Aldridge suffered a "skull fracture around his hairline" and will be kept at the University of Mississippi Medical Center for 2-3 days for observation.
Jamie Lynn Spears is at his bedside.
We're also told one passenger suffered a broken collarbone, one is getting X-rays on his hip and the third just suffered some bruising.

A-list unmarried pregnant teen supercouple Jamie Lynn Spears and Casey Aldridge have gone and bought themselves a new home -- and it don't have wheels!
The new crib is located near Jamie's proud mama Lynn in Kentwood and has plenty of room for the growing fam to ride around in their ATVs.

Brad Pitt lost his golden locks -- at least for the moment.
The superstud was spotted in a bald cap as on the set of his new film, "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button."
Pitt's new flick is currently filming in New Orleans, where Brad's been seen hanging out with the locals.
Hair or no hair ... still smokin'.
