YOOPER Wits!

(I think Yooperfan will get a BIG kick out of this!!!)
My nephew sent this story to me:
DUI - UPPER MICHIGAN STYLE

Only a person in Upper Michigan could think of this.

From the county where drunk driving is considered a sport comes this true story.

Recently a routine police patrol parked outside a bar in Escanaba , Michigan after last call the officer noticed a man leaving the bar so apparently 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 off 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, 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, t he 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 Yooper.

"Tonight I'm the designated decoy."

:rotflmao:

That is hilarious Cheesey.
I can see that happening up here.

Well.....i KNEW you would like it!
(Doesn't look like anyone else did though!)

I didn't see that until now, Cheesey. That's a classic and could be used almost anywhere. It's similar to what the kids out here do for their keggars on Friday nights. They have some legal age person go get the beer or keg for them and have that person let it "slip out" that theres a kegger up Pattee Canyon at the turn around. Only it ain't there...it's one or two canyons over, and by the time the sheriff's kegger patrol figures it out it's too late....evidence consumed.

Now remember out here that one or two canyons away probably means 50-75 miles of driving over dirt roads. It becomes a game....sheriff vs. the keggers as to figure out which canyon or gulch the damn thing is actually at. :beersign:

Hey Bob......how do you know so much about "keggars???" :rotflmao:
Are you the "legal" one???LOLOLOL!!! :rotflmao: :thumbsup:

I plead the 5th!!! err, I mean I just drank the 5th. ackbeer:

LOLOL!!! I'm a cheap date now..............a few beers, and i'm SHARPER!!!.................I mean TOAST! (Same thing!!!) :rotflmao:

that joke is robbed from Ireland! seriously i heard that one like 5 years ago..

Tiger...ya gonna have Cheesey arrested for petty theft?? If you do, I get his green beer. :thumbsup:

A joke about DRINKING involving IRELAND!?!?
Nah......it COULDN'T be POSSIBLE!!!
(J/k!!!) :rotflmao:

There's alot of Irishmen up here in the U.P.
No wonder that happened up here.

Have you ever been to the Isle of Man? That's where my family originated.

Oh, boy Yooper....I'm waiting for Cheesey to lay into that last statement of yours. I'll be LMAO

Come on man, leave the Manxman alone!!!!!!!!!

(Cheesey.........showing a RARE moment of self control, decides to ignore the possibilities of this post!!!) LOLOLOL!!!! :rotflmao:

Thanks Cheesey.
Having been a proud descendent of Manxmen I had never thought about the possibility of what Cheesey or obviously MontanaBob could do with that.
Bob could have done it himself but decided to lay it off on Cheesey so I guess I've got to thank Bob too.

Never been to the Isle myself, its chiefly known for the TT500 which is a road bike race every year, The Manx are Celts like us so its all good

Me, i'm of English and Polish descent. (AND I'm blonde.........so between the Polish and blonde, i get BOTH kinds of jokes!) But i don't mind, i actually like those kinds of jokes!
I always made fun of myself for BOTH reasons! LOL!!! :rotflmao:

You forgot the third and best reason....you're a cheesehead ! :razz:

Here's to you and your heritage, Yooper. And to everyone else on board. I'm Bohemian and English......half a "hunk" and half a "glish."

Hey.............thats a source of PRIDE!
(Shows you just how dumb i am!)LOLOL!!! :rotflmao:
