1975. After returning home from 6 weeks in Jamaica (another story), I headed out to celebrate my 25th birthday. I had the good sense to leave the car at home. Took a taxi to the bar. Six bars later at 3:00 a.m. I bummed a ride home with a buddy who told me he wasn't drunk. I believed him. On the way to my apartment he ran into the back of a city police car at a stop light. I hit the windshield and cracked my eye (real men didn't wear seatbelts in 1975). Got blood on my new birthday cowboy shirt (it's 1975, remember?). Cops drug me out of the car but not before I crammed my stash between the seats. They tossed me in jail for being alive in public or some silly charge (I wasn't driving!). At 4:00 a.m. I called my Dad to come and get me out. He said he'd be right there. He showed up at 6:30 p.m that evening, 14 and a half hours later, and lectured me all the way to my apartment (hey, Dad, I'm a grown man!....Well, act like one!)Charges eventually were dismissed because Dad knew the Magistrate. Nonetheless, I spend my 25th Birthday in jail with Larry of Underbridge and Harry the pickpocket. That's my one and only time in jail. By the way, my pockets were empty when I got home. Harry was good at his craft.

Aslong as your bootee didn't hurt it was a good night in jail

I wasn't fun at the time, but it made a good story, so it was worth it |

Mets got defeated in the postseason twice on my birthday in 1999 and 2006. Those 2 birthdays sucked.

Pig apparently is Pig. I asked the same question before and that's the only response I got. |
