Have you ever heard of the Patterson Nissan "Hands on A Hardbody Contest"????????? Its where people from all over come to East Texas and stand with 2 hands on a truck for days and last one standing wins the truck........ Last years winner went like 124 hours I think, I'll double check....... I worked there last year and just a couple of ours ago 2 days into the contest a guy dropped out and walked accross the street and broke into a KMart and stole a gun and ammunition and killed himself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is fuking crazy

I'll post more details

**stayinstacked** · 09-15-2005, 08:22 AM

stupid ****ing asshole, I feel bad for his wife and kids. Shooting yourself over a truck?? Redneck to the core right there

**SMYL_GR8** · 09-15-2005, 08:25 AM

That guy had much deeper problems than transportation! Lately when something starts to piss me off or get me down, I think of New Orleans and just blow it off. Everything is so trivial compared to that. . .

Sorry to get all deep.

**stayinstacked** · 09-15-2005, 08:31 AM

I imagine he wasnt thinking right after being awake with his hands on a god damn pickup truck for 2 days, anybody would lose it after that shit. "**** it people, I is goin' shoot myself near dat truck and scare evrybody so there hands come off her, if I cant have her, aint nobody gittin' her!!!"
