Joe Francis, the creator of the popular “Girls Gone Wild” video series was arrested this week for showing up to court five hours late.

Francis said he showed up late because he was suffering from the flu.  The judge didn’t seem to care because Francis was ordered straight to jail.

Francis is facing tax evasion charges, and the trial is expected to start next month.

If he is convicted and has to serve prison time, there will millions of angry men around the world because the “Girls Gone Wild” series will probably be discontinued.

Maybe Francis’ attorney can sneak a “Girls Gone Wild” fan into the jury pool.
