 Bill Murray "Borrows" Swedish Golf Cart Here’s a lesson to the young celeb generation from Bill Murray: Tip One: If you’re going to DUI, do it in Sweden, and do it in a golf cart—but not your golf cart; take the display golf cart from your hotel—they won’t mind. That’s because this isn’t LA; this is friggin’ Sweden, and how many celebs do they get there, anyway? Tip Two: Refuse to take the breathalyser test by incorrectly citing American law, which doesn’t apply in Sweden anyway. That will give you plenty of time to leave the country. Stockholm police said that while it is not illegal to drive a golf cart in the streets, it is extremely unusual and there were no obvious signs that he was drunk—aside from his breath. You gotta’ give it up to Bill for still being a little wild and unusual at 56, and remember the inspiring words of his Caddyshack character, Carl Spackler: “Cinderella story. Outta nowhere. A former greenskeeper, now, about to become the Masters champion. It looks like a mirac… It’s in the hole! It’s in the hole! It’s in the hole!”  Bill Murray could face a drunken driving charge after cruising through downtown Stockholm in a golf cart and refusing to take a breath test, citing U.S. law. Police officers spotted the "Caddyshack" star early Monday in the slow-moving vehicle and noticed he smelled of alcohol when they pulled him over, said Detective-Inspector Christer Holmlund of the Stockholm police.
"He refused to blow in the (breath test) instrument, citing American legislation," Holmlund told The Associated Press on Wednesday. "So we applied the old method — a blood test. It will take 14 days before the results are in." Murray, who had been at a golf tournament in Sweden, signed a document admitting that he was driving under the influence, and agreed to let a police officer plead guilty for him if the case goes to court, Holmlund said.
