I know 391 sounds crazy but that's what the man said. If it's like it was in the 90's, they had buses lined up waiting in the state park to use as paddy wagons.

I asked at my normal stop in Camdenton this morning and a dispatcher and deputy where there. They told me they booked 6 over the weekend for DWI on the water. That is one out of three counties around the lake. Back in the 90's there was a RV for a booking station at PB2 on busy weekends. Keep in mind the water patrol has a booking station at the Horny Toad and it is state troopers not local.

No way there were 391. Not even possible with one breath tester. The person giving the test observes suspect for 15 minutes prior to test --one at a time. You can test about 3 people per hour.

Yep, running stupid. Launched and caught starboard drive on re entry and hooked hard right

Dude, you got told a tall tale. I bet there hasn't been 391 BUI's total in all the years the shootout has been happening.

That's what happens? Damn, I never had twins. Oh, and I don't deliberately jump wakes ever because enough seem to come out of nowhere and catch me off guard but the little Donzi flies straight and true!
