Yesterday me and a pal of mine Greg went out fishing.. we decided to go out to the pine barrens (2 hrs from here) and drive around looking for small places to fish (back streams, small freshwater rivers) and so on.

It was good fun, we had to beat our way into the woods to get to certain locations but it made a nice change from fishing in brackish waters (salt and freshwater mix).

So on our travels I was rolling cigs (as you do) and Greg says "dude don't the cops ever look at you funny or ask you questions about that". He was referencing to how my rollies look like joints, well that's no suprise as I smoked the ganja for about 11 years before giving up.

So I says "Nah, they don't notice..".

So we stopped at a restpoint in the barrens, small deli store like, and I rolled a ciggy.. Then this guy pulls in in a truck (chev avalanche for us yanks) and Greg leans out the window and says "Hey man, do you know of any off the beaten track fishing locations around here?"

The guy did'nt even bother to look at him and says "Just go find a lake or something".
So Greg and I look at eachother and say "f*** me what an ignorant c***.." and just as we're done saying that this 'guy' turns around after getting in his truck and produces a state trooper badge and says "are you two f***ing idiots or what?"

So Greg (who is a 6'4 240lb college football player) says "what the f*** was that about?" the dude then points to yours truly sitting there smoking a rollie and says "You, are you f***ing stupid? what do you have there?" to which I very calmly and with a wry smile of my face announce "It's a ciggarette, MATE".

Puzzled he says "A ciggarette?" to which I respond "yes, (and pick up the pack of tobacco waving it around sarcastically) it's a ciggarette !"

He then goes beet red in the face, mumbles some lame sort of apology and goes to turn away, but now I'm pissed off and I say "See, I aint from around here.. so I do things differently to you yanks" at which point he goes even redder, gets in his truck and drives away

I'm guessing he was off duty, pulled into the stop and saw two young guys sitting in a raced up ricer car and thought it was his lucky day or something.. I wish I could have snapped a pic of his face guys, I was falling on the floor thinking about it last night

Happened to me in Kansas, except it was Royal Crown Draft Root Beer. Was driving and passed the highway trooper, giving him the "cheers" salute with my bottle. I wasn't speeding, he was just going slow.

What a clusterf***.

LOL, I was walking around with IBC rootbeer and I got caught LOL

 

lol ive had it happen to. whenever i get pulled over its for dumb things like a headlight being out and its late so cops always think ive been drinking. oh well they feel dumb when the thingy says .000

 

Oh yeah that reminds me, I got pulled over last week for having a brakelight out mad.gif

I wouldnt have minded but I had 3 others AND the one on the spoiler all working.. the thing that chaffed my arse was how in hell are you supposed to know you have ONE brakelight out? not like you can depress the pedal with your foot and take a leisurely stroll around the car, is it?

I check my turn signals and headlights frequently by turning on the hazards and walking round and getting out to check the head/tails, but when it comes to the brakelights its almost impossible to know until theyre all out and you have people honking at you and nearly rear ending you lmao.gif
