The Reel Life: Asleep on the job edition

The Reel Life knows the value of sleep. Before we enter any online slots tournament or begin a slots marathon, we always try to get in a quick catnap to gear ourselves up for the long road ahead. A thief in Australia should have done the same.

According to Metro.co.uk, a man in Perth, Australia fell asleep while trying to pick the lock of a shopping center. Police said they found the man snoozing early Sunday morning with a lock-breaking wire still in his hand.

Police spokesman Samuel Dinnison said: "It appears he fell asleep on the ground with the wire still in his hands and also in the door. He obviously had a long night whatever he was doing, and that got the better of him."

When police searched the man's car, they found prescription drugs linked to the burglary of a pharmacy earlier that day. He has been charged with driving without a license, burglary and attempted burglary, according to police.

The Reel Life hasn't had to resort to robbery to fund our online slots lifestyle (yet). But if and when we do, we promise to get a good night's sleep beforehand.
