I tried to explain to the cop that it was my friend’s beer (who was 21) and that she was having me hold it while she was petting a puppy.
Within 30 seconds I heard “can I see your ID,” and almost died inside. On our way over, my friend had a beer in her hand and she saw a puppy, so she gave the beer to me. I had no problems, finished a few beers, and after, my friends and I were about to walk to the stadium. As the morning turned to afternoon, I still hadn’t seen a cop so I decided to grab a beer. I only had a few drinks because others had told me stories about how many cops are out during football games. I was tailgating two years ago at the UMass game. The real question here is, did you get attendance points? Good Dog, Bad Cop The best part was that I had gone back to Pennypacker to get my backpack and class materials. I don’t know how I got there, but I was woken up by the University Park Police as I was sitting in the second row of 100 Thomas. We picked our favorites, and we are happy to be able to share them with you. We received dozens of stories, including some from alumni, ranging from sad coincidences that landed students in trouble, to raucous nights that clearly went awry. Last week, we asked for your best stories from getting cited with underage drinking, and you did not let us down.
