Years back I saw the Smiths play a show in Philly. Afterwards my drug addled friends wanted to cruise around and see if they score some more weed in areas of town where you can score weed on the street. Cops spot us driving around in BMW and notice the "thing that doesn't fit in" and hit the lights. Someone yells out, "hit it, let's ditch him", so the driver takes off. Hi-speed chase through the streets of Philly. Cut to the end: driver pulls a U-turn over a median, blows out tire, keeps going but speed is impaired, hangs a left turn, dead end alley. Oops. 3 cop cars cordon us off, spotlights on, guns drawn. We all have to get out and lay down on the ground. And apparently, if you are the driver and you have a Military I.D. in your wallet and you are an officer, you get off with a warning: "you have 30 minutes to fix the tire and get the fuck out of Philly. If we see you after that, your ass is ours".

We got out. The tire and wheel damage were somewhere north of $600. Could have been worse.

. . . Sorry, Penske.
