Default I think I'll buy another Polaris after story I heard

I was talking to an old fellow in Yellville, Arkansas the other day, and he told me he bought a new Polaris over in Harrison, Arkansas just a few days before. He said that he didn't tie it down in the back of his pickup, so that when he shot out from the red light the atv slid out the back of the bed.

He said it started cart wheeling down the highway and that a big dual axle dump truck hit it. He said the right front tire of the dump truck broke off when it hit his polaris, and the traffic was tied up for miles. So he said he uprighted his Polaris, started it, and tied a rope to that dump truck and pulled it off of the highway.

I mean this old guy was serious. I just sat there laughing. Another guy sitting there said he did buy a new machine, but wasn't to sure about the story.

Many old people suffer from alzheimers so their memory recollection is "challenged"...... I've heard some great fishing stories, but this has got them beat! LOL!

He did not have sexual relations with that Polaris.

Just someone who weighed as much. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
