'Cousin Eddie' display in Kentucky leads to police response

SHEPHERDSVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A “Cousin Eddie” display in Kentucky apparently looked a little too real and police were called to check it out.



After receiving the call, a dispatcher described the scene to responding officers as "a male standing outside. He is naked. He has a robe covering part of his body. He is exposing himself, and he has a hose between his legs.”

Officers arrived at the Shepherdsville home to find a mannequin in the yard that looked like Cousin Eddie from “National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.” It was decorated with a robe, a hat, a cigar and a beer and was holding what appeared to be an orange hose, WDRB-TV reported.



Homeowner Joni Keeney said she decided to put up the display from her favorite Christmas movie to have some fun.

which he dumped into the rain sewer outside the Griswold's house. This plays an important part at the end of the film.

They needed to find a less attractive mannequin.

Would love to know who made that 911 call! Whoever it was should be cited for a false 911 report. People need to mind their owin effing business!
