An Ohio man in a "Retired Drug Dealer" shirt was arrested for dealing drugs. Maybe he wasn't retired after all?

It's another example of bad timing. Had he been wearing any other shirt during his arrest maybe his story wouldn't have gone viral. However, he was and now he is. It's like the people we talked about on Dave & Chuck The Freak who hid their drugs inside a bag labeled, "Not A Bag Of Drugs." It's always funny until it's not. The Ohio man in the Retired Drug Dealer shirt was reportedly busted with 24 grams of meth in his car, per Cleveland 19.

According to Cleveland 19, an Uber passenger texted 911 (I didn't know you could do that) after his drive, Robert Rose, mentioned he had a false-bottom aerosol can in the car with methamphetamine inside. An officer later spotted the vehicle and conducted a traffic stop and found a lot of stuff in the car including: a false-bottom aerosol can with 24 grams of methamphetamine, 4 pills, meth pipe, digital scale, packaging baggies, cash, and 3 cell phones, per Cleveland 19. That all adds up to certainly make it look like he was dealing drugs.

47-year-old Rose now faces charges of drug trafficking, possession of felony drugs, and possession of drug paraphernalia, according to Cleveland 19. The case will go to a Grand Jury in July. You can't wear that shirt if you have drugs on you! Also, don't tell your customers about the drugs you're hiding! That's never a smart idea. Very wild decision to mention the hidden drugs to the customer receiving a ride. Can you imagine if your ride share driver did that?
