The state should have added a charge of “egregious frontin’.”

The Wu Tang name generator tells me “Florida Man” translates to Wu Me. I love everything about this story and it has lifted my spirits and provided me with a soundtrack for the rest of the day.

Claiming Wu-Tang membership by itself is probably not going to get the attention of the law, but claiming Wu-Tang membership while using stolen credit cards and not paying for literally hundreds of thousands of dollars in hotel and catering fees, limousine rentals and various other services is a pretty good indication that they intended to defraud all those business.
