Any wild crazy cop stories for the kids? I once had to hide in a hole in the ground that had a drainpipe in Ohio, After a little bit of bootleg Barry Sanders footwork from a spot getting trailed.

I kept hearing whispers of ''yo,yo yo''. I thought my friends were trying to get my attention. Turns out it was not my friends, but those known as ''jake''. I stayed in this pipe in the woods until dawn. I also ate a graffiti style bussiness card this guy had given me to not have any evidence if they found me ,better safe than sorry .
