Brummer shows up for photo op in pajama's, Swears he wasn't sleeping. LEWIS COUNTY, WA - County Commissioners wake up from slumber to get their photo taken for the local news paper to honor employees that actually do their jobs. Brummer didn't get formal memo.

It was 2:15pm local time when Lewis County Commissioner Scott Brummer got the phone call for the chance to get his photo taken with three local hero's from Juvenile Detention.

“Look, when I heard it was for the local newspaper, I came right away!” said Brummer.

Juvenile employees Xylia Warner, Lexie Brooks, and Heidi Parnel pictured above, were being awarded for the heroism and bravery they demonstrated in response of an accused murderer's attempted escape, but something about Brummer seemed a little out of place.

“I got a little ahead of myself with the excitement of things, and well.. They got me! Haha.” Brummer said, “Caught me with my pants down, so to speak.”

When local resident Sally Sneeze asked Brummer if he was sleeping on the job, Brummer just turned to her and said, “Yeeeehawwww.” And quickly rode away on a stick horse.

While Brummer was standing out like a boner in sweatpants, it further brought to our attention that, the only time we see our Board of County Commissioners is when they're in a picture.
