What could possibly go wrong with seafood down one's pants at a Walmart? Oh, let us count the ways.

A guy named Jesse Gordon went to Walmart in Aiken, South Carolina earlier this week and started shoving bacon-wrapped scallops down his pants.

But his little scheme was foiled when a security guard caught him and called the cops.

After getting approached, Jesse took the scallops out of his pants and told the security guard that he had it all wrong. He hadn't stole them, he simply got them from some "meth heads" staying at a motel and was trying to return them for a refund.

Cops are a tad smarter than Jesse. They were pretty sure he was actually running a scam where he'd steal stuff and return it for gift cards. They even found four $100 Walmart gift cards on him.

He was arrested for shoplifting. And we sure hope the Walmart there didn't put the scallops back on the shelves!
