Freddy Krueger robs convenience store with machete?
Is nothing sacred?
Apparently a 280-pound man robbed a convenience store in the Chicago suburb of Oak Lawn Sunday night, dressed in a Freddy Krueger mask and armed with a machete and a bowie knife.
Even the clerk was puzzled. The Foodies Food Store clerk actually said, ” ‘You’re joking, right?’ and Krueger says, ‘No, I’m serious,’ ” reported the police.
The clerk was able to look through the eye holes to determine the robber was a white male, probably between 37 and 43 years old, standing approximately 5’10″.
To further go against Krueger’s “Nightmare on Elm Street” trademark wardrobe, the man was wearing a blue hoodie sweatshirt and khaki pants, not a striped sweater.
He made off with an undisclosed amount of money from the register and fled on foot.
So for the sake of arguement, lets get the facts straight:
Freddy Kreuger: red and dark green striped sweater, brown fedora
Signature weapon: metal-clawed brown leather glove
Jason Voorhees: hockey mask
Signature weapon: machete
Not a hockey mask with finger knives, not a Freddy mask with a machete.

He obviously is suffering a sort of identity crisis. Besides, everyone knows Leatherface is way more intimidating. I bet the clerk would not have asked if he was serious had he been sporting a mask of human flesh!
