Not meaning to derail thread, at least not any further. Does anyone know what the policy is for walk-ons that get thrown in the pokey. I know when my brother played back in the Danny Mac years that it was informed to the walk-ons that if they got arrested they were gone end of story. I know that he and his walk-on buddies were told many times that they were an expendable commodity that examples could be made of. Not saying this is the current policy or that it should be, just will be interesting to see how it is handled. Sure would suck to be CPR right now if the old policy was still in place.
Hey it took me 5 years to get my undergrad, not because I was a slow learner, but because I loved college and wanted to take my sweet *** time. I only get to experience the college life once in my life, so I was taking advantage of that lifestyle.
Shhh.... Calling people a special kind of stupid for getting a minor alcohol related arrest is okay.... But awarding a medal sarcastically is a uber dickish thing to do....
man, that PAULA I got sophomore year was life altering.....
No. But there's a long history of idiots doing those things in exactly that place at this time of year. If you're stupid enough to be walking around obviously drunk when you know that the police are paying this area extra attention than you deserve to get arrested.
I'll assume you never went out, or your luck just fell the right way. There were plenty of opportunities where I could have been nabbed for public intox. Just didn't happen to be a cop on that street with me. I did have a friend, a girl even, when we were leaving Cy's roost one night, tripped on the floor mat they had just outside the door, because it had been pushed up and there was a wrinkle in it. Honestly, we were drunk, but it's one of those things that you see even sober people do if they aren't ready for it.
Anyays, She was the first one of us out the door and the cops were on her in an instant and had her up against the wall reading her rights. We tried to point out the floor mat being messed up, but their answer was, "You want to go to jail also?"
Now as I said, we were drunk, but we were no worse off than the thousand other people that walked by there that night with no incident. So, for my friend, what got her arrested was, imo, bad luck. IF there were no wrinkle in that mat, we all walk home not knowing any different. Instead, she had to spend the night in the drunk tank.
You could probably say that about a police force in any city. People who bash Ames PD are probably just mad that they arrest athletes and don't let them get away with everything
Hell yeah, 5 year club checking in.
What's funny is most people I talked to while on a co-op were telling me to stay as long as I can, they would love to go back to college and do it all over again etc, but you tell some people you take an "extra" year and they act like you have a mental problem.
I would say we usually went out every other weekend or so. Usually floated between Peoples, Welch Ave Station, and another bar that I can't seem to remember the name (was small, had a pool table when you went in, patio in the back that faced a parking lot).
I guess the closest thing I could remember to an encounter with a cop was when we were waiting for the drunk bus to go home. He said we were a bit too loud (we quickly shut the **** up). When we told him we were waiting on the bus he said something like "thank god you guys aren't trying to drive, get home safe" and that was it.
Our group only went to a few house parties. Each one was broken up by the cops. Same story, when they told the group to leave, we did, with most other people that knew better than to start crap.
The majority of arrest that I have witnessed were people mouthing off to the cops. Or telling their friends what a cop could or could not do while the cop was talking to their friend. Most could have gotten out of it with a warning if they would have just stopped and walking away.
I guess that could be viewed as a few lucky situations.
And that's great that you never had any encounters really with cops that lead to arrest, but it's pretty short sighted to say it takes another level of stupid to get arrested. I've seen incidents like yours where there is attitude or mouthing off to incidents how clonefan94.... Mistakes happen in college when it comes to alcohol. Live and learn. Doesn't necessarily make someone another level of stupid. Now it there was a repeat offender you may have a point.
