Party at Jeff's

All this talk about high school takes me back to some funny moments. Most of them about "Jeff" and his misadventures. One time we all knew that his parents were out of town for the weekend and decided to have some fun. Jeff had a cold or something and was staying at his parents alone. So "Josh" decides to go to Taco Bell - the local teen hangout - and tell the world "Party at Jeff's!" "Where?" "Just follow us." I'd say that night Jeff had about 150 unwelcome visitors come to his house. When we got there Josh knocked on the door "Hey Jeff, we're gonna have a party." Jeff had thought that by turning off all of his lights on his house that we would think he wasn't home. Finally "Go away" can be heard through the door. So Peety, who lived next door, went home and called him. Another person pretended they were a cop, "Sir, this is detective Ronnie Milsap with the Wichita Falls police. Are you aware that you have about 150 people on your lawn? Are you also aware that there is a $250 fine for having that many people on your yard?" Finally through the door we hear Jeff scream ,"Everybody Go Away, Ronnie Milsap says there's a $250 fine!" I think we actually did leave cause it was obvious he wasn't going to let the party in. I remember seeing perfect strangers in the yard saying, "Where the hell am I?" ahh...memories...

Yes, that was something. I think we had a convoy of 50-100 cars going down Southwest Parkway. I remember some of the football players actually picked up "Jeff's" little white pickup...actually picked it up and moved it a little. Ronnie Milsap...I can't believe he fell for that one. My first question would have been,"When do you quit singing to be a police officer?" I believe that was also the night of the famous milk incident, where I was debating whether or not to open up a can of whoop azz on your step father.

Upon further reflection, I believe the "fine" was actually $500. No wonder "Jeff" was freaking out. I know neither of us were driving at that point in time, so we had to be 14-15 years old. It doesn't seem that long ago, does it?
