Guest Posted July 17, 2020 Share #6 Posted July 17, 2020 I spent one night in the Portland ME city lockup for possession of weed in 1981. Got busted at a Jackson Browne concert. Ended up with a disorderly conduct charge which was dismissed as long as i left ME that day. That was many years ago. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Johnny Come Lately Name Posted July 17, 2020 Popular Post Share #17 Posted July 17, 2020 Not since I was about 16. Bunch of us drinking in a car, in a grocery store parking lot, next town over. (Geniuses that we were). An elderly lady walks by and the guy in the front, passenger's seat says something rude. I didn't really know the guy, he was a friend of the driver. She goes in the store and calls the cops, who dutifully show up. They make us all get out. Cops know the girl I'm with, so she gets to walk. One of the other guys is related to the city court judge. He walks. They cuff and stuff the other three of us and take us downtown, They take statements and stuff us in cells. They apparently checked with the PD in my town and they wanted to talk to me, to ask me if I knew the whereabouts of a certain young lady I went out with a couple weeks prior. (I didn't. Dated her once and figured out very quickly that she was batshit and dropped her like a sack of hot hammers.) (I found out afterwards, it wasn't the first time she’d skipped out. They found her at the bus station.🙄)I said I didn't know where she was, nor did I care. My town cop threatens to beat it out of me, gets nowhere and leaves. They put me back in the cell. A little while later, the cop comes in with my statement, tears it up and says "Get your ass out of here and don't ever let me see you in here again!" My feet didn't touch the floor all the way out of the station. To this day, I have never fucked up in Oneida again. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She went home to Reno for 2 weeks. While she was home he found out that he got orders to get deployed for 6 months. It was pretty much a death sentence for his marriage. I took him out and got him drunk. Should not have driven home. It was stupid. I guess cops didn't want to mess with us. We were nice, respectful. Passed the field sobriety test. Nobody asked me to blow a breathalizer. They just called the shore patrol out of Pensacola. Fortunately the cats that came out to pick us up knew us. Dropped us at our street on the way back to base.

The funny part of the story is that we had pulled into a pawn shop and were just going to duck behind a sign to pee really quick. The big sign in the parking lot was the kind that is on a small trailer, lit up with interchangeable letters and an arrow on one end. Well at the time it just seemed like a really good idea to rearrange the letters to say "penis fart". The cops driving by didn't seem to think that this was such a good idea. You see, this pawn shop had been broken in to recently. They cuffed us and called the owner. Owner came down and took one look at us. Two half-drunk, clean-cut, respectable sailors. He said "you boys stealing from me?" "No sir". He told the cops to let us go and not press charges. I think that they cops decided they were done at that point. They wanted to bust a thief and they had not even seen us driving. So that's when they called shore patrol. I learned a lesson that night! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted July 17, 2020 Share #28 Posted July 17, 2020 Skated every time, I have an honest look about me for a delinquent instigator. My yes sirs and no sirs are Oscar-worthy performances. One evening after happy hour, I was driving four other guys to a party at someone’s townhouse. I had a 1972 Olds Delta 88. Everyone had to pee so we pulled into a construction site in Razorlandia and pissed on construction equipment. The VA state trooper driving past had to stop. He asked us what we were doing. We had to pee sir, there was nowhere else to stop. Well don’t stand on the side of the road with your dicks hanging out. Yes sir, no sir, thank you sir. I don’t think I went home until the sun came up in the next morning. One adventure after another. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheep_herder ★ Posted July 18, 2020 Share #34 Posted July 18, 2020 Hauled in one evening with a group of friends for saying bad words to an old man that cut us off at a local drive in.

maddmaxx ★ Posted July 18, 2020 Share #36 Posted July 18, 2020 Stopped 17 times for traffic violations between 1968 and 1972. No tickets but for one that was dismissed in court. If you're going to be a gearhead in the south you should learn to be very polite to the police. Note: from previous stories here it's also good if you are willing to let them drive your car. Note 2: Helpful if you have some positive reputation at the track. Police are fans too. I'm not sure it works that way today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a gal working for me that tested nearly 4 times the limit while driving on base. Had her kid in the car and it was only a couple of hours after she got off duty. I just had knee surgery 3 days before but the guy who acted as first shirt was TDY so I limped to the cop shop to get her out. Didn't do my knee any good and it was the start of a long ordeal that got her kicked out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickinMD ★ Posted July 18, 2020 Share #38 Posted July 18, 2020 I was investigated and told I was going to be charged, but not arrested and the investigation took 3 days to clear me. It involved a girl I cut from the high school varsity softball team making a sexual harassment claim against me which the rest of the team and the parents quickly disproved. Social Services was called in by the Principal because he knew what they'd decide: they decided the same day the case was without merit and they wouldn't bother with it. Still, the girl's parents tried to make more of it in terms of my being a teacher and didn't behave up to standards - which wasn't true - and the school board only considered it because the father was influential in the county. Then other team parents were angry and said they were willing to testify the girl's parents were spreading what were clearly lies about me. When I confronted them at a meeting that involved school board and union reps, I asked the school board rep if the school board would sue the parents on my behalf for slander against their employee or should I have the union sue the school board and the parents? The parents dropped their complaint a few minutes later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lost a coach due to a non starter who felt she should have started bait the coach into an argument with her parents who were already primed for a fight. I literally picked up the coach and pulled him away as he’s arguing. He’s yelling at me to put him down & I told him you go back over there you are going to lose your job. He went back & lost his job... After he was dismissed as coach I had a meeting with the principle. He said first thing, I have already made up my mind and nothing you tell me is going to change it. So why did you waste my time by accepting this meeting? Big shrug... Piss poor leadership sir and I left. He retired at the end of the year... Food riddance. I actually worked well as a softball & baseball booster with the next Principle 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
az_cyclist Posted July 18, 2020 Share #41 Posted July 18, 2020 never arrested, but did get taken to the station for a breathalyzer. Readers Digest version. I was working at a Firestone Store in Toledo, OH, in the fall of 1974. It was the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and our manager was being transferred to a Cleveland store, so he sent me out for some beer and liquor. I had 3 or 4 beers over 3-4 hours, then at quitting time headed towards Gary Indiana to my Aunt's place for Thanksgiving. I am on US 30 about to turn toward her house when a car slows in front of me. I slow (in my 1967 Ford Falcon) and a guy in a late model Olds 88 read ends me. We pull into a gas station. He wants to leave, but I think we should get a police report. we go to call, and he starts saying I am drunk and he will tell the cops that. Police arrive, you can smell alcohol in the car. the officer takes me to the station and they have to call in a guy to give me the test. on the way he tells me " I think you are ok, so, this will be the best." They read me my rights, the guy gets there, asks me what I had to drink, and gives me the test. He looks at me and says" Did you sniff those beers?" He got no reading. Turns out the other guy was drunk! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His car got the worst end of the collision. The '67 Falcon had a high, metal rear bumper, that hit in the middle of his grill, and, the radiator. His car was steaming before the police arrived, and needed to be towed. I just had to pry my bumper out a bit, and was ok. I drove the car 2 more years, and used the insurance money ($120? or so) to buy a TV. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
