Repeat Offender

We’ve seen gulls stealing food outdoors but this bird went to the store.

Back in 2007 a herring gull became famous for repeatedly walking into a shop in Aberdeen, Scotland and stealing bags of Doritos from the lowest shelf by the door.

Eventually he became a celebrity on the nightly news and earned the nickname Sam.

When store management told the staff to close the door to stop Sam’s shoplifting, customers donated money to pay for Sam’s habit.

Sam remained a repeat offender.

p.s. In Scotland the chips are called “crisps.”
