State Trooper

 


A senior citizen drove his brand new Corvette convertible out of the dealership. Taking off down the road, he floored it to 80 mph, enjoying the wind blowing through what little gray hair he had left. Amazing, he thought as he flew down I-94, pushing the pedal even more.

Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw a state trooper behind him, lights flashing and siren blaring. He floored it to 100 mph, then 110, then 120. Suddenly he thought, What am I doing? I'm too old for this, and pulled over to await the trooper's arrival.

Pulling in behind him, the trooper walked up to the Corvette, looked at his watch, and said, "Sir, my shift ends in 30 minutes. Today is Friday. If you can give me a reason for speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."

The old gentleman paused. Then he said, "Years ago, my wife ran off with a state trooper. I thought you were bringing her back."

"Have a good day, sir," replied the trooper.


Thanks USMC

    I bet it was filed right next to the one about the blind man walking past the Fulton Fish Market

    1. Son of Reep, I've probably posted it 3 or 4 times in 12 years. I still find it funny.

  3. My wife got pulled over one time and the cop asked her why she was driving so fast. She said "because I didn't see you behind me!" and he started laughing and LET HER GO! I would have gotten tased for a crack like that.

  4. Yup, that's as classic as me ever driving a vette with the wind blowing in my hair.

Put it here ... I can't wait to read it. I have the Captcha turned OFF but blogger insists it be there. You should be able to bypass it.
