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.

I've never slowed down for a hitch hiker, but I have driven by and given them a thumbs up.
Not on the list was that I saw some guy in a car next to me getting a hummer while driving. I was a passenger in a van and we passed this guy and saw what was going on, so we slowed down and opened the side sliding door and all of the guys in the back waved, gave obscene gestures, gave the thumbs up, and so on. The guy just smiled at us with a big doofy smile. |

When I was still living in KC, I was out one night with an old buddy of mine. He had a penchant for making annual trips to Vegas. The guy couldn't play poker worth sh*t, but he loved to go to Vegas.
Anyways, so the both of us are hammered and it's nearing closing time. He saunters over to me and says, "VEGAS!!" I asked him how the hell he thinks we're going to get to Vegas when it's 2AM in KC. "ROAD TRIPPIN'" I repeatedly refused to drive to Vegas when the both of us were clearly in no condition to be driving. He, of course, insisted, and suggested we switch the driving on the way. So, as drunk as I was, I stupidly agreed to make a spontaneous road trip to Vegas and suggested I sleep first and that he wake me up when he starts to get drowsy. About an hour and a half later I wake up- my face next to the window, resting on my shoulder when I see a road sign saying "Columbia, Missouri, 150 miles" or something like that. I go back to sleep when, a few minutes later, I shot up and shouted at my buddy, "Where the ***** are you going?" "We're going to Vegas, baby! Whoohoo!" "Bullsh*t you moron! We're going EAST! We're going EAST you dumbazz- Vegas is WEST!" My friend looked stunned for a few moments. "Oh sh*t. I geuss you better drive." We ended up pulling over in the first town and getting a motel for the night.

Others:
Playing those driving/drinking games (with a d.d.) where you take a shot if you get passed by another vehicle. It's really cool if the van you are riding in tops out at 70 and the speed limit is 75. Pissing out the back side of a van with those windows that just pop out at the bottom. Didn't really piss out the bottom, just banked the stream off the window. I was afraid the damn window would swing shut on a bump, or someone would shut it. ![]() Stopping on a minimum maintanence road in the middle of ****ing nowhere to take a piss. Everyone piles out to fertilize the ground with liver-filtered beer. Six guys are drunk out of seven, and get back in first. The sober driver gets back in last and can't find the only keys that fit the van. It's freezing out and there are no keys to be found. That was all on a roadtrip to a strip club for a friend's brother's 18th birthday. Of course we never did see naked chicks that night.
