If you're a certain age, you remember playing "Duck Hunt" on the original Nintendo, chasing the ducks across the TV screen, with that gray and orange gun-shaped controller.

A 25-year-old guy in North Carolina named David Dalesandro robbed a convenience store on Tuesday afternoon, with a plastic, "Duck Hunt" gun. It was painted black, so it wasn't THAT obvious.

The robbery was successful, momentarily. David showed the gun and took $300 from the register. But the clerk called the cops, and they found David down the street and arrested him.

Somewhere, a cartoon dog is giggling at him.
