Car 54, Where Are You?

A man is at a party and has had too much to drink. His friends plead with him to let them take him home. He says no - he only lives 1 mile away. About 5 blocks from the party the police pull him over for weaving and ask him to get out of car and walk the line. Just as he starts, the police radio blares out a notice to police of a robbery in progress in a home one block away. The police tell our party animal to stay put, they will be right back... and they run down the street to the house being robbed.

The party guy waits and waits and finally decides to drive home. He gets home and tells his wife he is going to bed, and to tell anyone who might come looking for him that he has the flu and has been in bed all day.

A few hours later there is a knock on the door and the police are there. They ask if Mr. XXXX lives there and his wife says yes. They ask to see him and she replies that his is in bed with the flu and has been so all day. (They have his drivers license).

They ask to see his car and she asks, why? They tell her they want to see his car so she takes them to the garage and opens the door where they find...the police car.

*This is apparently a story which appeared in the local newspaper. It was supposedly told by the driver at his first AA meeting.
