Ok, I got a funny one about customs...

The group I race with went up to Fredricton, NB to a blowout, I had my car on an open trailer, I get to the border and the border guard saw the car and asked us all the usual questions and then got a bit off topic about the cars, well after about ~5 minutes of blocking the lane he asked if there was going to be more of us in the group, I told him there was going to be ~18 of us, and there was a white truck with the number 32 on the side of the trailer a couple minutes behind me, then jokingly I said hassle him as I drove off.

A few hours later we get to the hotel and we are all checked in and here come that truck rolling in, next thing I know he was screaming and hollering I'm going to get you, you SOB and had everyone wondering what was up!

The border gaurd pulled him in and just let him set there for ~20 minutes, then told him the Number 28 said to hold you up and it was ok to go on now!

He got me! He fired my car up at like 5am, we were all still asleep... I new that sound the first piston up, I came flying out of the room and there he was with his whole crew laughing like crazy! I'm a "In the buff" sleeper...

-Enjoy

Got you and I don't blame him. I would have at least grabbed my cap(dont ask how I know) but it was funny when everybody ask why I bothered putting a cap on.

Always time for a cap.lol
Heres one for you one of my drivers called me at 4 in the morning and told me someone stole his pants with his wallet.
Now my first question was exactly the same as his wifes was why weren't you wearing them.

No I had actually known of it happening to two drivers in the same location. One of them even had two yapping chiuwawas (got some joe inspiration here) and didn't even wake up the dogs.

Flying hook at dallas if any truckers need to keep your pants.

After working a few all nighters you start to get used to it. after you do get used to it it is pretty nice there is a lot you can do.

A lot of people doesn't like the short days either but I do.
