10 PAX happened to form a circle around a man known as “Swirly” for something called a “Hot Potato” Q. Shortly thereafter, a deuce of Deuce and Probation formed a PAX of 2 with no worry of legal intervention for the 5-0 were pursuing Seymour on the Nickel Bridge and looking into an All Points Bulletin issued for a 5’8″ white male, light brown beard, bald, and sporting “Virginia” paraphrenalia, who responds to the names “Jason” and “Marmaduke.” Here’s what went down, more or less: COP, Swirly-Style: Dead Man HangStretch-to-the-SkyDQsMix of Wilson’s Wife, Fuddski, Yankee Aggressor, Southern Gentleman, and that…

You know those guys who get into a position of no real authority at all (think mall cops, meter maids, first time Q’s), and think the rules don’t apply to them? Those guys disgust me.
