No lie, me and a buddy got pulled over going down to grand isle. Beers deep, barely had time to hide the empties, and spilled one right around my feet in the passenger seat.

Had a taillight out, and they let us off with a warning. Couldn’t believe our luck.

Fun trip

. Their heyday as a speed trap was before Hwy 3235( the back road) was put in. Had to travel the two lane at 35 MPH for miles at that time. Got stopped twice. Once with a car full of kids heading to Fourchon. I had about four violations and the cop let me go. Just by chance I had bought him a drink at the Glo Room once before. Second time I had a local with me and we drove straight to the police chiefs house after receiving the ticket. He came out of the house in his drawers and a wife beater. He called the cop on the radio and told to bring the ticket to his house right now. Tore it up and told the cop “ Mais don’t stop that man no more, dats Don’s fren,day gonna bring us some teal ducks,you like teal ducks ? “Cost me two dozen teal. This was in May. We were shooting North bound teal as they were coming home.

You’ve really turned into quite an Oweo. At least he knows what he is.

Driving southbound through Golden Meadow one day, I slowed to 50 and put my cruise on. About a half mile into town, some dumbass in a brand new red Silverado passes me up doing about 70. I immediately think, "Look at this dumbass. He obviously doesn't know where the fricking he's at."

One mile later after the first curve to the left, 2 cop cars have red Silverado dumbass pulled over. I guaranfrickingtee he didn't get a warning.
