The Trooper and The Juggler
A Missouri State Trooper pulled a car over
on I-55 about 2 miles north of the MO/AR 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 Sikeston to do a show that night for
a birthday party 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 that 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
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 me
to jail, 'cause there's no way I can pass that test."
