Bizarre! How Did This End Up Hanging From A Tree In Illinois?

Tens of thousands of likes, comments, and over 26,000 shares later... a couch has gone viral and broken the internet.  This doesn't sit well with me.

There is never a dull day in the wonderful state of Illinois.  From Illinoisans stealing electricity from their neighbors, to a man taking a dump in the middle of Walmart, to now this.

On Friday, the McHenry County Sheriff's Office posted to their official Facebook page possibly one of the funniest photos on the internet right now.  Here's what they said:

Take a seat and get comfortable because the photo I'm about to share with you is going to confuse you like the rest of the internet is.  I guess an Illinois man took the wrong root and ended up barking up the wrong tree...

It was nothing actually criminal, but would you believe me if I said a couch was literally stolen out of the bed of a pick-up truck?

The lone suspect?  I present to you: Mother Nature.

It was a very windy day in McHenry County to the point where a couch was hanging by a tree branch in the middle of the road.  Talk about a cliff hanger...

You think that black recliner is laughing down the road there?

I can hear the recliner now, "It be like that sometimes, bro."

I can't even imagine the phone call the driver made to his wife.

"Uh, yeah.  I found the remote, Honey.  You will never guess where it is right now."

 

The comment section didn't disappoint either.  I have been crying laughing all day just reading the jokes people are making!

Yeah, this is actually really good marketing for that couch brand haha.

If you've ever went couch hunting for your house, the best ones are where you least expect them.

Interesting... *Takes note*

How much do you think that branch can bench press?  I mean... couch press.

Easily my favorite comment.

This definitely wasn't a comfortable situation to be in, but I am so glad everybody could look between the cushions and have a really good laugh.  If you're (couch) surfing the web this week and find something hilariously funny like this photo, send it in.  I'd love to see all the strange and bizarre things hanging out around Illinois!
