My most interesting? Oh if there were only one...OK, I'll go with this one!
There were three ladies, all intoxicated, and one had to pee really, really bad! Well, when nature calls! I was asked to pull over. So I did. Well she hopped off the cab and right there on the side of the rode she dropped her britches and relieved herself.
She wasn't shy at all!
The first would be the craziest group. I was working a Saturaday night and it was right at bar closing time as things really get hopping. Out of one of the bars known for cheap beer comes a group of 11 guys with thick French Canadian accents. They come to me asking if I can get more of these bike things to take them to one of the big hotels uptown. So I called some of the other drivers and I found out these guys were a pro lacrosse team and had just beat our local heavily favored team. These guys were really trashed after the big win. So we loaded these guys up in 5 or so cabs and started heading to the hotel. It took about one block before they decided they needed more fun. Each light turned into a fire drill and they ran from cab to cab switching with who they were riding with, trying to measure each driver up for a big rickshaw race. Next they decided, “why wait for the rickshaws to stop” They tried to jump cab to cab while we moving and then decided to moon everyone at the same time. Well, mooning wasn’t enough, and then it was flashing each other!! OMG this was a crazy ride. Each driver tried to maintain control as much could on his cab but it was lost cause. The whole time the were yelling and whooping and every person walking and standing on the corners. One guy fell off the cab and then no one would let him on, they all would block him like they were still on the lacrosse field. They as were screaming at the drivers to go faster so he would have to run faster and faster. The final straw was this guy ended up grabbing one guys off a moving cab and punched he while doing it and gave him a major nose bleed. None of the players even offered to help stop the bleeding. All they said was “you wuss” in their accent it couldn’t help but make me laugh. They all thought all the blood was cool. They did settle down a bit and were shouting “100 bucks to the winner” of the pedicab race. We as we all know we finished the race almost all together and all the players looked to the others and said “do you have and money?” So much for the hundred bonus. Well, one the more sober players had to run up to the team manager and wake him up and borrow money. We made out all right on the tips and have one more great story.
