Widespread Panic Galactic Incident Must Read

:dupe:


Murphy Center, Murfreesboro, Tennessee

I had an interesting incident in the lot.

I was getting something out of my car when I noticed an asshole putting garbage in my gas cap compartment.

I didn't want to say anything because he looked all hopped up and he was simply tripping out!

and the show was about to start so I had to hurry.

So, I shut my door, turn around, and see a buzz-cut redneck asshole standing there in all blue. Very shocking and confusing at the same time. I hate that feeling!

He grabs my arm and says to me, "Yeah man, we see what you've been doing. Get over here to the to the back of your car. You're in trouble now!"

So what do I see? Another asshole in blue talking on his radio, the very sketchy-acting asshole who stuffed garbage in my gas compartment, and a cool black guy in blue.

The black guy asks me for my ID, and I give it to him. my buzz killed and sweating bullets by this point! I also realized that it probably wasn't garbage in my gas cap compartment.

And I could already hear GALACTIC playing just 300 yards behind me. It was already 7:00. Then I got really pissed off! No more nervousness. Just a very strong desire to get inside!

Ofcourse, a huge crowd is starting to gather as the other blue asshole is questioning the other kid.

I noticed him cleverly drop a capsule, I assume mali, in a way that the asshole wouldn't notice. The black cop saw also and we both started chuckling together.

So then, the first asshole comes up.

Before he could speak, I pull my ticket out and say(in a nerdy-southern accent):

"I paid $35 for this ticket and the concert has already started sir. Please, tell me what you saw me do," which could have been a number of things over the previous 3 hours actually, "so that I can get over to the Murphy Center ASAP."

-cop: "we know you're with this guy, we know that he is holding, and we
know that you are holding. You're going to wait right there while we
search your car. Empty your pockets man"

-me: "First of all, I would appreciate it if you didn't call me man.
I have never met this individual. You didn't see me buy any dope, do
any dope, or sell any dope. I'm sure you saw this gentleman do
something suspiscious, but I didnt do anything sir. And, I'm sure you
know that already. You can't search me or my car. I'm sure you
know that as well. all I need is my driver's license back so that I can
hurry on to the concert. Is that OK?

-cop: "You're not going to the concert!" in an asshole tone.

-me: "Well, you're not searching me or my car and you, by law, are not
allowed to hold me. I know this because my father is a district
attorney." HAHAHA Not!
"So where do we go from here, officer? Oh and by the way, you
know who I am so I would like to know youre name and badge number, and your superior please"
-as I opended my back door and got a pen and my notebook.

I WAS IN THE ZONE! He didn't know what to say! He just held up his forfinger, like telling me to wait a minute, with a confused look on his face. and went over to the other kid- who was, without a doubt, going to jail. there was no way I could save him.

me: "Sir, please." -while pointing at my watch

Everyone that had gathered (about 20 or so) for some reason thought that this show was more interesting than GALACTIC.

I wasn't speaking aggresively. but, loud and quick. and, very "matter-of-fact" like an honor student or something.

So Next, this really cool old DEAD HEAD I was hanging out with way earlier, around 4:00, when folks were just starting to roll in, walks-up out of nowhere, holding a beer, smooth/slick as hell, and hands the blue asshole a card- ATTORNEY AT LAW!

My Friend to me: "Hey guy, you ready to go? Let's hurry over there!"

My Friend to cop: "Officer, please hand my friend back his driver's license."

the tone in his voice let blue asshole(s) know that continuing to heckle me would be a bad decision on his part.

On the walk up to the Murphy center he commented on my disscusion with the blue asshole and told me that he couldn't have handled it better.

I had a phat stash of some heady fungus which I luckily hadn't eaten yet.

Me to my Friend: "Yeah but you did save me alot of time. Eat about an .8
of this and call me in the morning"

My friend: "Alright Doctor!"

We bRIPPED tALLS and smoked this killer kush all night.

GALACTIC was great!

WIDPESPREAD PANIC was IN-fucking-CREDIBLE!!!!!!!

what a night!

some of the new, some old classics, and the greatest jamming I've heard since Big Summer 07. a couple of nods of approval, a few sexy smiles from the ladies, and a highfive with a, "Way to go!"

memorable.

but ofcourse, there was nothing in my gas cap compartment after the show.

what crappy luck!

PS- Yes, I know. sorry about the decieving title.

Panic! Panic! Panic!

 

oh yeah. many people got busted this past wednesday.

not quite Oak Mountain, Alabama. No dogs or anything like that.

but still pretty heavy!

 

Nice work, way to keep the cool. Cops aren't use to that.

Just please don't become another lawyer....

 

i always bring mine to the show with me and remain chill until i get inside.
