Well, there's also the choice of "Really, Really Bad Luck." For 61-year old bank robber Edward Blaine Norton, strike one was called when he fled from committing an armed robbery of the Union Bank & Trust north of Richmond, Va. Having failed to secure his bag o' loot properly, Eddie left a trail of fluttering $100 bills in his wake.
Strike two was called when he reached his getaway car and found he had locked his keys inside. Bystanders didn't know he had just robbed a bank at that point, but they figured a guy who's leaking large-denomination currency, screaming, and beating on the window of a car with a big stick prob'ly wasn't up to any good. Several locals moved in to wrangle him, and Eddie took off running.
Strike three came when the posse tackled Eddie and brought him down. Whilst being muggled and hornswoggled, Eddie managed to reach into his pocket, pull out his pistol, and shoot himself in the leg. Not to be upstaged by a nutcase, one of the posse whupped out his own roscoe and shot Eddie again. That pretty much settled Ed's schedule for the day. Twilight found him double-dotted, locked down in the hospital, and charged with eight felonies, including armed robbery and two counts of attempted murder. Eddie is said to be "despondent" over the entire affair.
