When my truck broke down, I looked at some new trucks at the dealership. Thank goodness they were able to get me on the road the next day - or I would have had my biggest impulse buy ever.

wow, excluding the "truck stop hooker" I've done a lot of these things. I'm all nostalgic now, going to have to convince my buds to take another trip. VIVA LAS VEGAS!!!

Pretty pedestrian for me and I've been on alot of Texas-Oklahoma/Arkansas-Missouri roadtrips.
Most of those were spent killing my thumbs on a gameboy or reading.

Drove 16 hours straight once. That sucked.
Other than that, nothing too wild. We did stop at a McDonalds and filled out an application using fake names, and tried to be as funny as possible on it. |

Well, this wasn't exactly along the road, but my buddy and I snuck into Heinz Field a couple of years ago.
We were in Pittsburgh for a concert, then a Pirates game. The day of the Pirates game we wandered about downtown Pittsburgh. We made our way to Heinz field and proceeded to nose around, looking through gates and windows (My buddy is a huge Steelers fan). We went to the gift shop, which was open (this was in June) then came out and noticed, that one of the gates leading to the concourse was open. We looked around, didn't see anyone, and went through. We went about halfway down the aisle, but were too chickenshit to go any further.

Implored a semi driver to blow his horn. - Back when I was Kid I used to to that all the time.
Teased a hitchhiker by pulling over and then taking off again - Guilty. I was tempted a few months back to toss a peppermint to a guy holding up a sign that said "Hungry, need food" but stopped when I remembered I was in the church van. Sang loudly either the Willie Nelson classic “On the Road Again” or Steppenwolf’s “Born to be Wild” - Yep. Stopped to view a roadside historical marker or scenic pulloff - I've noticed that the older I get, the more I want to do that. Talked to another traveler at a gas pump - That's not too uncommon for me to do. Urinated in a bottle or other receptacle in your vehicle. - yep. Got a kidney stone the night after we were voted in at the church before this one. Our HMO was in Missouri so going to the Dr in Kansas wasn't going to happen if I could help it. I handed the keys to the wife and we started accross Kansas. I was having to whiz about every 5 minutes so I picked up an empty soda bottle and told her to keep driving. Somewhere about half-way accross the state I passed the stone. Man that hurt!
