A New Jersey man obviously thought 911 was a joke after placing several calls claiming to be "the president" and demanding  to speak to brand new Jets quarterback Tim Tebow. Back on June 10, the 28-year-old called 911 three times, but never reported an emergency. Then, clearly not respecting the authorities, called the Hopatcong police.

Annoyed, the police showed up at his mother's house, and she allowed them to search for him. Mama apparently doesn't take too kindly to people playing around on her phone. After a brief search, the manchild was found inside of his mother's closet, hiding under pillows. 

Does it get more pathetic than that? Still, we're certain that Tebow will forgive him. It's the Christian thing to do, after all.
