Flashing Lights…
…in the rear view mirror is never a good sign, especially when you’re way too fucked up to stand, much less drive.
We’d just left a bar, at 3:00 am, after drinking about 20 beers each. 2X’s to name the brand.
We had about a quarter-a-mile head start when I handed the weed to my buddy and said, “toss it�. He panicked, and didn’t, but I didn’t know it…the window was down. I pulled over on a bridge.
Needless to say, these fucking redneck cops were on us like stink on shit. They found the weed, and were so excited about that, they didn’t even ask me how much I’d had to drink. I’m a lucky man, well sort of.
Cop 1 throws the contraband (including the nunchauks he found under my seat) on the hood of my car.
Cop 2 puts my friend in a headlock, and whips out his handcuffs.
Cop 1 tells me how much trouble I’m in.
Cop 2 has a shit-eating grin…Bastard.
Cop 1 enters into a conversation with Cop2.
They took their eyes off of me…big mistake.
In a fucking flash, I grabbed that shit off the hood of my car and threw it off the bridge and into the river.
Cop1 and Cop 2 were PISSED. I mean, really pissed. I mean pulling out their sticks pissed.
My buddy starts laughing, and no shit, whips out from his wallet…a Monopoly “Get Out Of Jail Free� card, and hands it to Cop 2. I swear on everything I hold dear…that’s the truth.
Anyway, the card “kind of worked�. Thirty-Six hours later (and those 36 hours is another post altogether) we were free again.
Cost us some money, but we beat it…no evidence. Never did get my sticks back, though.
More Flashing Lights stories later: I’ve got a bunch. Hell, I might even make it a category.

You haven't lived if you've never been arrested. Sounds like you've done quite a bit of living there, Yabu!
