(If you did this for the New Years eve party that was indeed good pre
planning)
.
Recently, a routine police patrol parked outside the North Star bar in
Rochester, Minnesota. After last call, the Officer noticed a man leaving the
bar so intoxicated that he could barely walk. The man stumbled around the
parking lot for a few minutes, with the officer
quietly observing. After what seemed an eternity in which he tried his keys
on five different vehicles, the man managed to find his car and fall into it.
He sat there for a few minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and
drove off. Finally, he started the car, switched the wipers on and off -- it
was a fine dry summer night -- flicked the blinkers on and of a couple of
times, honked the horn and then switched on the lights. He 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 patrons' vehicles left. At last, when his
was the only car left in the parking lot, he pulled out and drove slowly down
the road. The Police Officer, having waited patiently all this time, now
started up his patrol car, put on the flashing lights, and promptly pulled the
man over and administered a Breathalyzer test.
To his amazement, the Breathalyzer indicated no evidence that the man had
consumed any alcohol at all. Dumbfounded, the Officer said, "I'll have to ask
you to accompany me to the police station. This Breathalyzer equipment must be
broken." "I doubt it," said the truly proud Minnesotan. "Tonight I'm the
designated decoy."
