Artie Lange busted for driving Nissan Sentra


   Artie Lange drives like your mom,...

TMZ is reporting that comedian and Howard Stern Show co-host Artie Lange was busted for DUI Friday afternoon in Tom's River, New Jersey.  Perhaps even more disturbing than the news that the superstar stand-up comedian has fallen off the wagon once again was the news that Artie Lange was busted for DUI while driving a 2009 Nissan Sentra.

The creator of  SaveBabyGorilla.com, a blog focused on the trials and tribulations of Artie Lange, has stated that Artie Lange's Nissan Sentra was a rental car, and not a vehicle that Lange regularly drives..  The "Too Fat to Fish" author's real car--a Mercedes-was reported to be in the shop for repairs.  The news may be of little comfort to scores of working class "guys' guys" who call themselves Artie Lange fans.  There may be lasting damage resulting from seeing their hero being busted while driving the car that their collective moms have "had their eye on for quite some time."

Nissan's official website boasts some of the key features of the Nissan Sentra to be the "Drive-n-Hide Trunk," and "six standard air bags."  There is no news on whether or not Artie Lange's Nissan Sentra was equipped with the "optional interior accent lighting." 

If Artie Lange is in the studio when the Howard Stern Show returns from vacation Monday morning, the beleaguered  co-host will doubtless be confronted for driving such a "flimsy" vehicle.  TMZ has not commented on whether or not Artie Lange's destination was "Bloomies."

    So there you are, tubby. Look like a bucket of lard on a bad day. You baby gorilla. Why don't you work in a zoo, and stop bothering people? Got a call yesterday from Baskin Robbins. They said that they're down to only five flavors. You're swelling up as I talk to you.

    Son, why are you pestering these people when you should be studying for your GED. Also, I told you to tell Baskin Robbins to stop calling you. The doctors don't think it's a good idea to keep in contact with them anymore. We will never get past this episode of our lives if you don't move past the 31 flavors incident.
