Writers for "The Hangover" could have taken a cue or two from this scene.

As a Sacramento cop sat in his patrol car, a drunk man walked up and leaped onto the hood of the officer's vehicle, according to a police report obtained by the Sacramento Bee.

But this was no ordinary drunk man. This was Jesse James Thomas wearing a sombrero and a boxing glove, and he was here to make his name known, police said.

Thomas, 55, allegedly did just that and screamed his own name repeatedly from atop the cop car before fleeing, KCRA reported.

Soon after, cops found him lying in the street nearby and Thomas was arrested on suspicion of public drunkenness, the Examiner reported.
