Okay, so this story is absolutely hysterical, at least it was at the time. It's not short, but it's worth it.
We were on a road trip heading to a poker series. We were going through central Oregon in my '06 STi. My buddy loves cars so he was mobbing it naturally because there's literally no cars on the road (1 passes every... 10 minutes?) and we hadn't seen a cop the whole time.
I don't have a radar detector so I told him basically, drive as fast as you want, but it's at your own risk. We're coming around a corner at about 95 and there's a cop RIGHT there. My buddy doesn't even wait and just pulls over before the cop is even out into traffic, since he instantly flipped his lights on. The cop comes up to the window.
First he asks what we're doing and we tell him heading to a poker tournament.
Now the funny part...
I had not smoked any marijuana that day, and my friends smoked a bit at my house in my garage, but the car most definitely did not smell like it after eating McDonalds, smoking tons of cigarettes between us three, and the fact that it'd been almost... four hours or so. Then the cop says,
Cop: "You guys have anything I should know about? The reason I ask is because I can smell marijuana coming from the vehicle"
Friend: "No sir, nothing in the car"
Cop: "Hey look man, I know you have some marijuana in the car. I can smell it, I know you guys were smoking as you went past me and threw it out the window, just give it up so I don't have to get a dog out here" (Was actually a cigarette, not a joint)
My friend: "No sir"
At this point, I'm actually surprised we're going through this instead of just getting a speeding ticket because as far as I know, I left all my pot at home, and nobody brought any (i have my green card, but in WA, so since we're in OR, it doesn't matter obviously). He asks whose car it is, I tell him it's mine. He asks me to step out and talk to him at the back of the car. He interrogates me, I repeatedly say I don't have any pot at all, I don't think anybody else does either. I honestly at this point thought there was nothing in the car. He has me stay at the back of the car.
I see him walk around to the driver's window, my buddy rolls down the window, he talks to him for about 30 seconds, then pops the trunk and steps out.
I'm confused.
He pulls my bags out to get them out of the way, shifts some other stuff around. He pulls out his backpack. He then pulls out an airtight soft ice cooler (one of those soft ones with reflective stuff inside you use at picnics), and lifts up two ham sandwiches, a fat thing of potato salad, some egg salad sandwich, some other food, and finally, in the very bottom, is a ziploc bag with a TINY wood pipe and about a $5 nug of shitty pot.
First off, he didn't smell the fucking pot. It was in a bag, surrounded by smelly food in an airtight container in a backpack, behind my bags, in my trunk. Yeah fucking right.
The cop takes it and basically says, "it's good you knew the right thing to do, since it's just a ticket now and I don't have to get the dogs out here to take you to jail", he asks my buddy if I knew he had it, and he says I didn't, and the cop has us get back in the car.
We get back in the car to wait for the tickets he's issuing. I'm confused, I'm like "what the heck man, why would you even give that nug up? He had no idea!" He took a flat out guess that we were 20-ish looking young males from WA going to a casino for a week and that we'd have pot (but we don't EVER, because we have a hookup down there in the casino actually, so we never transport it.)
I guess this is the conversation my buddy had with him:
Cop comes back up to my friend's window after interrogating me,
Cop: "So you have any marijuana in the car? It'll be easier than me bringing a dog out here."
Friend: "Yeah I got a little bit" (no joke, exact words he said)
Then they got out and got it out of the cooler. So, finally, the cop comes back with the tickets...
• A $585 speeding ticket for 90 in a 65 (says he gave him a break)
• A $1,000 possession of marijuana ticket
And then lectures me about having current insurance in the car and says he's giving me a "break"
So long story short: Don't give up a fucking 5 nug when the cop is taking a wild guess that you have weed in the car, because he will not wait to get the dogs out there.
Probably the most expensive 5 nug he ever bought.
Lol @ "Yeah I got a little bit"
