*long story but a goodie*

Back in 2002 I was attending cape fear community college in wilmington,nc. I was working part time at party city and abunch of my friends were all traveling to ECU for the night to party for Halloween. I had to work this day which was the busiest day of the year for them cuz we were the headquarters for halloween costumes.

At around 4 my buddy called me and said hey were all going to ECU and said you Have to come, i explained I had to work and couldnt come. Long story short I made up a story about my bro coming to visit me and I said he was in an accident and I had to leave immediately. They called my bluff and said what hospital is he in?? I then just said fug it i quit. So we go, party all night and have a blast but I told my friends I had to be back the next day for english class at 9 a.m sharp or else I would automatically fail (10 absence rule, already had 9).. So they said thats fine as long as you drive back in the morning which I agreed to do.

On the way back we got a call from a girl we were friends with who said she was stranded at a BP gas station cuz her friend who was driving to ECU as well got a dui on the way there. I cant remember what highway we were on but we must have stopped at 4-5 BP gas stations before finally finding her. At this point I am freaking out, pedal to metal trying to get back. I was averaging 120 mph for several miles in the early a.m. probably around 6-7, cant remember exactly. The car I was driving was an old buick regal that belonged to my buddy Garrett. Well we passed a trooper going the opposite direction and saw him. So I took the next turn in sight in attempt to escape before he gained on us. He was closing in quickly but I was preprared to ride it out cuz i'm sure I still would have failed a breathelizer test at this point.

Garret said pull over dude, and I screamed at him and said if I do were going to jail,(there was empy beer cans and liquor bottles half way open all over the floorboard)but he insisted that I pulled over so I did.

The cop yanks me out of the car, throws me in the backseat of the cop car and asked why we were going so fast and asked if i knew exactly how fast we were going. I told him exactly why I was speeding (trying to get to class in time) and as far as the speed I lied and said I had no idea how fast I was going because Garrets speedometer was broken but acknowledge that I was sure I was speeding.

After letting me sit in the back of the car for about 30 minutes and checking my record (which was clean, aside from some speeding tickets) he said oK i'm gonna let you go but first were gonna play a joke on your friend Garrett and tell him he's going to jail for a broken speedometer. I say ok , yes sir (shocked the hell outta me) and he removed the cuffs and let me back in the car and asked who Garret was. Garrett reluctantly raised his hand and said me sir, the cop told him was taking him to jail for the broken speedometer. Garrett was like wtf?? Cop then said na i'm j/k..yall slow and drive safe.

While I avoided going to jail, I credit this as to one of the reasons I dropped out and now sell cars for a living. Crazy poo huh??

We used to play a game called follow the leader where if the lead car swerved you had to and we'd play one where we'd ease over into the other lane when a car was coming and then jerk back and beep at them. Well some guy saw a friend do that and started following him so we cut him off so the friend would get away and he started chasing us so we were flying through the back roads of Candler/Asheville and finally got away.

One time my friend got cut off by some dumb girls who also cut off a big rig and almost caused a big wreck. at the top of the hill at a red light they got beside us and he took a full large coke from mcdonalds we had just gotten and threw it in their sunroof. They were pissed. I saw it splatter everywhere after hitting the middle console. They chased us through red lights on the wrong side of the road and over curbs in parking lots but we lost em cause we had an Explorer and they were in their little sports car. lol

When I was in 8th grade I was in Civil Air Patrol up in Massachusetts. One of our cadet leaders was throwing a party in the (kinda seedy) town next to mine. Our senior cadet Joe Gura offered to take me as well as a brother and sister that were in 8th grade and twins. We had the 4 of us and another senior cadet packed into a mid 70's Corolla, heading down the big hill that led to the river, the bridge, and this town the party was in. In front of us there was a kind of beat up lime green 71 or so Mustang going really, really slow. It pulled over and a big arm popped out waving us around him which we did. Once we passed him he pulled out and followed us down the hill.

When we got across the bridge at the traffic light, he pulls up next to us and says "Pull Over, I want to talk to you". This guy is huge, has a scraggly beard and is in his late 20's early 30s. He then proceeds to start swinging a chain while looking at us.

The light turns green and Joe goes ahead of this guy and pulls over - us in the back as a bit concerned, but Joe and his friend are actually pretty big athletic guys.

But as this guy stops in front of us and gets out of his car, Joe puts the car in Drive and hits the gas, narrowly avoiding this guy, who jumps in his car - and the chase is on.

Joe was driving this little car down crowded streets, passing cars in the opposite lane, taking alleys that we didn't know where they ended...but somehow he managed to lose this guy, it was pretty amazing.

We decided to head back home - Joe said that his friends on the football team were practicing at the school and would be able to assist. As we were headed in a line of traffic over the bridge, I look back and sure enough like 20 cars behind us was the Mustang, pulling out into the other lane and cutting off cars to jump the line...and sure enough he got right behind us again.

We went back up the hill and took a right to go towards the high school, when a cop drove by us and immediately turned around and chased us. The Mustang sped off, we pulled over, and after a frantic 30 seconds of pleading, the cop leisurely went off in the direction of the Mustang. We went to the high school (end of a dead end road)...no one was there. We would have been trapped.

We made our way to the party (and it was epic, Miller High Life and my 8th grade weight were a good combination) but we never found out what that guy wanted.

I was ridding with about 6 other bikes. Most of them were GSXR 1000s. One guy had a really fast one, that had went the 1/4 mile in just over 9 sec. He was a crazy bastard.(I say was because he doesn't ride any more, not because he is dead.) A cop came up behind us with blue lights on when we got on I-26 in West Columbia. We got on the ramp really fast, but we were not going but maybe 10 over when we got on the interstate. 3 of us pulled over. Me, my cousin, (who did not have plates on his bike, and was probably the reason we were being pulled), and Ben (the fast one). Ben pulled up next to me and said he was going to run. Before I could say anything he started spinning off and was gone. The cop left us and took off after him. We went home. Ben called us, not long after we had gotten to my house. He was already home putting his bike in his kitchen. He lives a lot further than I do, from where we were. He said he never saw the cop and did not know if it worked or not, but that he was going 187 before he got off the interstate.

Kristy Swanson was pretty hawt in The Chase

got chased by the cops when I was 16...me and my hubby were on street bikes and getting chased in a small town. Went on for 10 - 15 minutes and we luckily found this little back alley with an empty lot over grown with grass and weeds...we lay low in there until they left. Never did get asked about it or caught.
