Milwaukee Police Call Foul Over Brewers’ Eric Thames Monster F-250
Milwaukee Brewers first baseman gets pulled over for F-250 ride height violation. What? This lil’ ol’ thing?
Eric Thames, first baseman for the Milwaukee Brewers, really loves his Ford F-250. Thames is a big guy, and so naturally, he needs a big truck. And when it comes to his modded, high-riding F-250, Thames is of the “bigger is better” school of thought. So it wasn’t really a surprise when police in Milwaukee pulled him over for violating ride height.
According to WFTS, Thames was riding along in his massive truck with the Milwaukee police spotted him, because, well, how could you miss him? Thames, who loves to share pictures of his truck on social media, posted the incident with a laugh and a shrug on his Instagram account.
“MKE police already got me,” Thames said in the picture on his Instagram story, also adding “Tires can’t be more than 2 inches out of the wheel well. Thank goodness I didn’t buy an F-650.” We hear ya, Eric. Sometimes a big truck can bring a little trouble. But they’re still worth it.
