PRINEVILLE, Ore. (KTVZ) — It’s been a relatively mild and calm late fall so far, but with winter coming, Prineville Police had a fun suggestion Thursday for how to stay safe on slick sidewalks: Waddle like a penguin.
“It’s that time of year when the sidewalks turn into surprise skating rinks and suddenly everyone in town thinks they’re a figure skater… right up until gravity humbles them,” the department said in a Facebook post.
“So please, for the love of your tailbone, walk like a penguin:
Arms out like you’re questioning your life choices
Tiny steps like you just saw a Lego on the floor
Full waddle — the kind that would make actual penguins proud
Waddling = dignity protected
Walking normally = an audition for America’s Funniest Home Videos,” the safety post concluded.
