Criminal Masterminds tripped up by getting trashed, apparently

I've never stolen a bunch of liquor, but I'm pretty sure this is the wrong way to do it:
After stealing about $1,154 in liquor, two burglars decided to celebrate and got so drunk they fell asleep instead of escaping, police in Swansea, Wales, said.

Burglars Keith Cullen and Paul Wiggins stacked up the stolen booze outside the store and then went in to have a drink. Police found them asleep in the store the next morning, The Sun newspaper reported.
See, you're supposed to plan your liquor heist (or any heist, for that matter) in a way in which you end up in some kind of hideout. That hideout could be your residence or a cabin in the woods or some other place, but it really, really shouldn't be the place you've stolen stuff from.

I'm just saying is all.
