A Georgia State Trooper pulled a car over on I-95 about 2 miles
south of the Georgia/South Carolina state line.
When the Trooper asked the driver why he was speeding, the driver
answered that he was a magician and a juggler and he was on his way
to Savannah to do a show that night at the Shrine Circus and didn't
want to be late.
The Trooper told the driver he was fascinated by juggling, and if the
driver would do a little juggling for him then he wouldn't give him a
ticket.
The driver told the Trooper that he had sent all of his equipment on
ahead and didn't have anything to juggle.
The Trooper told him that he had some flares in the trunk of his
patrol car and asked if he could juggle them.
The juggler stated that he could, so the Trooper got three flares,
lit them and handed them to the juggler.
While the man was doing his juggling act, a car pulled in behind the
patrol car. A drunk, good old boy, from S.C., got out and watched
the performance briefly. He then went over to the patrol car, opened the
rear door and got in.
The Trooper observed him doing this and went over to the patrol car,
opened the door and asked the drunk what he thought he was doing.
The drunk replied, "You might as well take my ass to jail, cause
there's no way I can pass that test."
