Breakin' The Law'I'd taken some mushrooms in a pub,' writes Allen Smithee, 'and things had got a bit odd. People turning into goblins, barstools into toadstools etc. I wandered off from my friends and found myself in a carpark. I noticed a huge liquorice allsort driving towards me and Bertie Basset got out. I kinda realised that Bertie was a policeman and my brain went into paranoid fast forward. I decided that I must be being arrested and said, "I'll just get in the back of your car, Officer" Bertie looked at me with disgust, "Not bleeding likely sunshine. Just piss off home ok?"'

A legend......amongst my circle of uni friends. Sadly 2nd-hand as this happened a couple of years before I arrived.
The three in question are avid players of White-Wolf's Vampire Live-Role-Play game, and had, the night before been engaged in a game and (for the club website) a photoshoot. Which explains the 'props' in the boot of their car.
Anyway, the following day, these three were driving around town and one of them thought it would be a genius idea to start playing with a cap-gun including firing at various passers by, and holding it to the head of the other two. Anyway, much hilarity ensues, but eventually they get bored and return to campus... it's at that point they notice they're being tailed by the police.
They pull up on campus, and decide that, obviously the law want a word so they start to get out...
"STAY IN THE F**KING CAR!!!" says a voice from God... or rather, the police-cars' loud-speaker.
A tad concerned these three do as their told, just in time to see a police van speed up, pull up infront shortly followed by several officers carrying MP5's piling out and dragging them out and to the ground. They find the cap-gun and begin questioning the three. Before they go much further one of the three says "Look, before you go any further, you'd better look in the boot."
The coppers do so. They find the 'props'... these props included an AK-47, an M16 and a grenade launcher, to name but a few, all either blank-firing or replica.
The three were arrested, put in separate cells, and questioned individually. Eventually the law realised they were telling the truth, and let them go with little more than a stern talking to.
Well, realising one of the three had a scientific practical, due to start any minute, the three make their way back to campus. The one walked into his practical, late, and said:
"Sorry I'm late, I got arrested"
The lecturers reply was
"Oh, that was you... well, you can do the practical some other time"
The three then spent the rest of the day getting hammered in the uni bar.
Well that's the story as best as I remember being told it by one of the ones who was there. One of our role-playing groups legends.
