Newfie Drunk, you just gotta love it!!!!
How many of our Officers would find the humour in this e-mail!
After all, I am sure he was sitting there laughing at this guy the entire time.
Recently, during a routine patrol, an RCMP patrolman parked down the
street outside a Legion Hall just off the main in Gander NF, CANADA
After last call, the officer observed a man leaving the Legion Hall.
The gentleman was so intoxicated that he could barely walk.
He then stumbled around the parking lot for a few minutes,
with the officer quietly observing. After what seemed an eternity
and trying his keys on five different vehicles, the man managed
to find his car, which he fell into.
He sat there for a few minutes and then threw a hook and
line out the window and seemed to be trying to catch a fish..
A number of other patrons paid no attention to this crazy drunk
as they left the bar and drove off.
Finally the drunk started the car, switched the wipers on and off
(it was a fine, dry summer night) flicked the blinkers on and off
a couple of times, honked the horn, and switched on the headlights.
He then pulled in the hook and line and moved the vehicle forward
a few inches, reversed a little and then remained still for a few more
minutes as some more of the other patron vehicles left.
At last, the parking lot was empty; he pulled out of the parking lot
and started to drive slowly down the road.
The officer, having patiently waited all this time, now started up
the patrol car, put on the flashing lights, and promptly pulled the man over.
He performed a breathalyser test on the gentleman who cooperated fully,
and to his amazement the breathalyser indicated no evidence of the man
having consumed any alcohol at all!
Dumbfounded, the officer said, 'I'll have to ask you to accompany me to Headquarters. This breathalyzer equipment must be broken."
"I doubt it," said the truly proud Newfie,
Thanks Ellen/Sam
