An Alexander County Deputy pulled a car over on I-57 about 2 miles
> north of the Missouri state line. When the Deputy 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 Branson to do a show that night and didn't want to be
> late.
> The deputy 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 deputy that he had sent all of his equipment on
> ahead and didn't have anything to juggle. The deputy told him that he had
> some
> flares in the trunk of his squad car and asked if he could juggle them.
> The juggler stated that he could, so the deputy 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 squad
> car, a drunk got out and watched the performance briefly, he then went
over
> to the squad car, opened the rear door and got in. The deputy observed him
> doing this and went over to his squad car, opened the door and asked the
> drunk what he thought he was doing.
>
> The drunk replied, "Might as well take my ass on to jail, there's no way
> in hell I can pass that test."
