Is This Fake?

UPDATE: Linked by one of the few good liberals that I know of.

I got a decent laugh out of this but after the second viewing, something seemed off. Almost as if it was staged.

For starters, The cop knew the rider's name, Steve. As if Steve was a habitual offender for driving his mower to the bar. Also, Steve's voice is being picked up remarkably well on the cops mic. Personal mics have a limited range. So when Steve is on the ground, facing away from the cop's mic, you can still hear him at the same audio level as when he's facing the microphone.

I'm calling fake but still funny.
