When Travis Keen was arrested outside a Louisiana Walmart for allegedly exposing himself, the 28-year-old told authorities he did it because the retail chain gets him aroused.

Who wouldn't get excited by such low prices?

A man caught with an exposed erection outside a Louisiana Walmart explained to police that he "gets aroused" by the chain of warehouse-style retail stores, according to a Ouachita Parish police report.

Travis Keen of Monroe, La., was cruising through the parking lot in his Ford Taurus when a witness noticed that the 28-year-old "took it out." Apparently, Keen would pull up next to female shoppers to show them just how fond of Walmart he really is.

According to the officer's report:

I asked Keen what he was doing in the parking lot Keen stated he was trying to see if he fixed his power steering in his car. I advised Keen about what I was told by the witness. Keen then stated he did have his penis out because of past experiences he had at Wal-Mart. Keen stated when he comes to Wal-Mart he gets aroused.

Keen has no prior criminal history. Police charged the suspect with obscenity and held him at the Ouachita Parish jail on $5,000 bail.
