Men's stroll out of Wal-Mart in ladies' thongs leads to trouble
SCOTTSBLUFF, Neb. (AP) — Two scantily clad Colorado men arrested on public indecency and disorderly conduct charges won't be prosecuted for taking what they said was a "triple-dog dare," the city prosecutor said.
Stephan Ballasch, 35, of Wray, and Shawn Madsen, 36, of Ramah, bought two pairs of women's thong underwear at Wal-Mart, went into the bathroom, and put them on Tuesday. They strolled out wearing only T-shirts and the undergarments and made it to their cars before Scottsbluff police caught them, police said.
Police reviewed surveillance tape before arresting the duo.
When asked why they were in women's thongs and T-shirts, one of the men said because one their friends "triple-dog dared" them to.
A phone number listed for Ballasch was disconnected. No number was listed for Madsen.
