That's funny Mike!
Reminds me of the time I had an LAPD Sheriff and his dad with me on a dove hunt near Taft, California.
I had known the local game warden (Bob Fisher) since I was a kid. We were driving down main street in Taft when he saw my truck and pulled up behind us and turned on his red lights. I said "oh crap" and my Sheriff friend looked around and said, hell, that's a game warden pulling us over".
I said, "the hell with him" and kept driving. Next came the siren and by now my Sheriff friend and his dad are yelling at me to pull over.........I kept going!
Next, Bob Fisher pulls up next to me and yells, "pull over or I'll shoot out your tires!" By now my Sheriff friend is really getting nervous, so I pull over in front of a restaurant. The game warden walks up to my window and asks to see my hunting license.
Now my Sheriff friend and his dad are really baffled by all of this. I look at Bob Fisher and tell him to go to hell, I ain't hunting, I'm driving! The game warden sticks his head in the window and puts his hand on my shoulder and says. "well Dave, if you won't show me your hunting license, can I buy you a cup of coffee? I said, "sure Bob" and we both started laughing.
My Sheriff friend and his dad both started cussing me and the Warden out, saying we were the most rotten SOB's in the world for pulling that trick on them...........TOO FUNNY!
I can just imagine what all those kids were thinking in that bus when Mac tried to tell them it was no biggie, that was his dads old buddy. Great joke Mike!
