Gone Fishin' - 10-15-2006, 03:00 PM

So I was driving my rc18bmt(buggy with MT tires) and a mamba 8000 done my street, when a car was coming towards it at around 40(on our 25MPH street), so I had to swerve to get out of the way. The truck rolled, into the sewer. Obviously the first thing I did was go grab my camera to document it, as that was the most urgent thing to do. LOL
Here is a picture of it in the sewer

Here is a picture of the sewer

I decided to grab one of our fishing poles, but we sold them all when we moved. So I had to go door to door to find one. I finally found this one, that the guy uses to fish for muskies and stuff.

After 10 minutes of manipulating the "hook" and "bait" in the sewer, I finally caught my prize! Luckily it was undamaged becuase of the bed of leaves it landed on.

Here is a picture of what I used as a hook, becuase my neighbor had NO HOOKS OR ANYTHING, luckily he had the pole though.


Moral of the story: Don't drive near open sewers.

so my 1/8th buggy was doin a high speed run around 65-70 and this crazy ups driver came fly'n around the corner i swerve to save my investment and go right into a sewer! there must have been a pipe break some where near by because there was a ragin river down there! i quick grabbed my fishin pole and ran down the block just missing it each time i checked the sewer. finally i came to a drain that must have blocked itself from all the leaves that had fallen recently......


very cool you got it back!


Same 'ol Fun!

Right along I-55 on the west frontage road, where the pond and park is, between Caton Farm rd and RT30, you might be to young to remember?
I don't know who here besides Bernie would remember?

Could that have been someone else turning on a radio inside when you weren't supposed to run outside of the track??
