AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

WAUSAU, Wis. - Cars lining the street. A house full of young people. A keg and drinking games inside. Police thought they had an underage boozing party on their hands.

But though they made dozens of teens take breath tests, none tested positive for alcohol. That's because the keg contained root beer.

The party was held by a high school student who wanted to show that teens don't always drink alcohol at their parties. It has gained fame on YouTube.com.


Dustin Zebro, 18, said he staged the party after friends at D.C. Everest High School got suspended from sports because of pictures showing them drinking from red cups.

The root-beer kegger was "to kind of make fun of the school," he said. "They assumed there was beer in the cups. We just wanted to have some root beer in red cups and just make it look like a party, but there actually wasn't any alcohol."

Zebro purchased a quarter-barrel of 1919 Classic American Draft Root Beer, and by 10 p.m. Saturday, the scene outside his rural Wausau home had all the makings of a teen drinking party — cars, noise and kids.

Kronenwetter Police Chief Daniel Joling said an officer was dispatched to the home March 1 on a complaint of cars blocking the road.

Juveniles began coming out of the house after the officer used his squad car's loudspeaker to warn that cars would soon be towed, Officer Jason Rasmussen wrote in his report.

Nearly 90 breath tests were done, and officers even searched locked rooms for hiding teens.

"It was a tremendous waste of time and manpower, but we still had a job to do, and our officers did it," Joling said. "If one kid had come there, even hadn't drank there, but had come there and had been drinking and had left and crashed and burned, then what would the sentiment be? Why didn't the police check everybody out?"

School Superintendent Kris Gilmore did not immediately return a message Friday.

 

What I want to know is how cops gain access to these parties in the first place. I've been looking a hell of a lot into where cops can and cannot go and all I can assume is there's always some retarded kid who answers the door or lets them in. It's pretty funny that they didn't get to bust them for anything, but another sad case where the cops are bullying a bunch of kids for having fun. Which just goes to show, if you're going to have a party, park reasonably and STAY inside! Don't give the cops a reason to come over and if they do come over DO NOT ANSWER THE DOOR.

Sorry, that was just my "save your ass" announcement. But it's a shame those kids got hassled over absolutely nothing when those cops could've been out solving REAL crime.

 

kids are pretty stupid. And kids drink and run over people when they drive.

dun dun dunnnn.

so cops "bully" them.

 

I don't care what happens when they leave the house, cops can attack them right away, but when they're at the house and not driving and not going anywhere, then the cops should stay the hell out. Granted, they probably would stay the hell out if the kids weren't being morons and disturbing the peace anyway.

But in that same aspect, if it's okay for cops to bust underage drinking parties for the reason that kids shouldn't be drinking and driving, then I guess it should be alright for them to bust adult parties, because you know, one of those adults could go and kill someone afterwards.

And there was nothing to hassle those kids over except maybe disturbing the peace and blocking the street. Yet they wasted a ton of time at a party where the biggest offense was a blocked driveway or two.

Yeah, I've got a grudge, yeah, I'm still fucking bitter, but you have cops ransack your house and tell me you're not. It's sad that there are still a few good cops out there while the ones who are on some sick power trip are making the whole damn profession look like a bunch of nazis.

 

lol i wanna do that

 

Ramona, it's simple as pie: The average cop knocks on the door and some shmuck kid opens with a beer in hand.... Or the house smells like pot.

Or the officer sees no adult and a beer on the coffee table etc. Once suspicion can be reasonably explained, it's over.

Don't answer the door. That simple.

 

rootbeer kegger! FUCK YEAH! i'm so there.. :drool:

hold me by the ankles upside down. KEG-STAND!

rootbeer ALWAYS gives me the hiccups.
