I’m Gumby Dammit! Gimme All Your Money!

I knew you couldn’t trust this green squishy dude. Gumby caught on tape robbing a convenience store.

From CBS here:

San Diego police say a suspect, dressed up as Gumby, tried to rob a 7-Eleven on Labor Day.

The botched robbery happened just after midnight Monday in Rancho Penasquitos.

Surveillance tape shows the costumed bandit telling the clerk he is being robbed and reportedly demands a pack of cigarettes and cash. The flexible suspect then tried to pull out what he said was a gun from his costume.

Apparently flustered, Gumby dropped 27 cents on the floor and left the convenience store empty-handed.

For those of you who may be too young to remember when SNL was good, here is the Gumby skit:
