Brett Sanders fought the law and the law won. Namely two buckets full of pennies. More than 22,000 of them.
The Friso, Texas, man was incredulous the city police cited him for going nine miles over the speed limit. And he was livid that a jury decided he deserved the ticket.
So, when the city ordered Sanders to pay $212 in fines, he figured he’d make the payment as inconvenient as possible. He decided to pay Frisco in pennies.
He got the coins from a bank, painted two buckets with the words “Extortion payment,” headed to the Frisco Municipal Court and dumped the pennies on the counter….and he made sure to catch it all on video.
