Post stories that involve you, they can be about anything you want, something you've accomplished, something you saw, somewhere you went, something that happened to you, etc.


I'm not sure if I've ever told this story here..

I was 19, had graduated high school and decided to keep working and take a break from school. My best friend and I were developing some business plans and his mom was moving halfway across the country, I was getting bored with the routine day in day out schedule I had so we both decided to move with her and also help her get her business set up for the first couple of months. So we leave California and the first day reach Needles, right on the border with Arizona. It was August and hot as fuck still at 12am when we checked into the hotel. Drove for around 8 hours the next day and reached Albuquerque, posted up in another hotel for the night. The next day we drove for like 14 hours all the way to Irving, TX and stayed a week with a friend and ran out of weed! After that 8 more hours up to Arkansas, in the middle of nowhere. We were there, dry, for 3 months and we were both getting cabin fever. We found out there was an 18 and up casino right across the border in Oklahoma, so we decided to check it out. We get within sight of the casino and pull into a Wendys to eat before we go in and a cop pulls us over right when we park. They arrest me for having a suspended license (having just driven more than half the way from California) and pull my friend out of the car and search it, then they arrest him for a packed up bong inside its bag that hadn't been taken out of the car yet from the move because we had no weed.

We get to the jail at around 9pm on a Friday night and they tell us we won't see a judge until Monday morning. They stick us in two separate cells, mine was already occupied by three sleeping people, so I just went to sleep. The next morning the three guys in my cell went out to work and they moved my friend and two other guys into my cell. One guy looked about 28 and did nothing but sleep pretty much the entire time, he was already in for a few days and was crashing hard from an oxy addiction. He was arrested for driving without a license to pick up his moms medicine. The other guy was probably around 20 and said he was arrested for shooting a guy in the leg with a shotgun because he said he came onto his property.

The first Saturday was pretty uneventful except for the 20 year old picking up a whole box of dominoes shoulder level and dumping them out onto the concrete floor while that other guy was trying to sleep! Lol I thought he was going to kill him but he didn't even seem to hear anything he was that fucked up!

Sunday came and they had a priest come in and pray with everyone, it was really odd. I was still pretty much just a non practicing Christian at this point but it was still kind of weird.. Instead of the shitty jailhouse food we'd been eating they gave us cheeseburgers from the McDonalds next door.

Monday was probably the best day, they moved my friend and I into another cell with a different guy, probably mid-late 30's, also from California. I don't remember all of what we talked about but I remember laughing hysterically about the stories this guy was telling us! I also remember asking him why he was there and he said he came home from work and caught his wife out back in a tent fucking someone so he went to his car and grabbed a bat and just started hitting the tent randomly not giving a fuck, he said someone called the cops and when they rolled up he said he tore the side of the lights off the top of the cops car with his bear hands, I asked him how the hell he did that and he said he was high as fuck on meth and "felt like the fucking Hulk!", I remember that being funny as fuck the way he said it, totally nonchalant, it took a couple seconds for my brain to process what he said.

Finally, Monday night around 6pm, my friends mom shows up to bail us out, on the drive home she told us she waited til Monday because we deserved to be there having never heard our side of it. No weed keep in mind, just a dry, empty, clean bong (missing the bowl, so essentially, a flower vase with a small hole in the side of it. $730 later, 2+ days behind bars in Roland, Oklahoma city jail, we were free.

Overall it was an interesting experience, it was shitty at the time but a good story to tell..
