Denton Tall Tales #25

The little league field was set in the woods on the bank of the Choptank river. It was located in a kind of shady neighborhood.

One day during practice, while looking for a foul ball, Patrick made an awesome discovery. Near the water there was a large green trashcan, inside that trash can was a large amount of marijuana. Like 20 pounds or more, filled to the brim. Nancy Reagan’s “say no to drugs” campaign must have had a big effect on us, because after checking it out, we all decided that we should tell our coach. He promptly notified the authorities. We didn’t take any, and its still one of the biggest regrets of my life.

When we get together these days that is one story we often talk about. “Man, can you imagine if we found something like that today……wow…” I often wonder whose it was, and where it came from. They must have been really pissed at us.
