Louisiana 2
I also had a run-in (well, a few actually) with Louisiana's finest.
Visiting one weekend with a college buddy and his friends outside of New Orleans at the friend's millionaire/drunkard's fathers mansion outside of NO the father stumbled downstairs and declared that he wanted to go into town to see a famous jazz musician playing a local club.
Piling into the Town Car a bunch of young nefarious looking lads and the above mentioned geezer went into town. Whereupon said geezer proceeded to get wasted and try to start fights with various strangers. The bouncers hinted that we should get the geeze out before they called the cops and we all hussled him out. In the back alley he started throwing a fit and one of his sons pined him down and started trying to slap some sense into him.
Then we heard a siren an looked into the lights of a NO police car. The two biggest black men I have seen in my life got out. Realizing that the scene of a bunch of young guys standing around while another young male was slapping the sh*t out of a geezer may not look like the best way to stay out of jail we all stumbled forward blurting out our side of the story while pleading "please don't kill us."
The son beating the father continued slapping him while lecturing "See, Dad? Now the cops are here. Now we are all going to jail. Do you see what you got us into?"
The officers stared silently for about five minutes. Then one of them said "hit him one for me, kid" and both got in their car and drove off.
