Late 90's.........in Fayetteville, NC at a strip club called Cloud Nine.
I walked in one day, and saw that there was not very many customers in the club. Me being me, I walked up to the bartender and asked if he owned the joint...( I grew up in these kinds of places, so I understood that the owner was likely the barkeeper). Anyways, I promised to bring the place some more business, and chase the heavy drug scene out, and in return, using the honor system, I would drink free, and take 5% of the house tips..........worked out pretty good. I knew a lot of guys and was always the popular one in the crowd. On Friday nights the place was packed, and turned out to be some really good times.
This new guy to the unit shows up, and the very first thing the guy asked was "where's the party at". I new just the place to take him. That weekend I took the guy to Cloud Nine, and he was floored. This guy was nuts, one of those guys that you really don't want to drink a bunch because they show their ass. And he sure did. He started spilling drinks on the dancers, taking his dick out, licking the girls while on stage, etc. A couple of the girls told me he had to go, so these girls were very important to me, and this guy was an idiot, so I told him he was done, and to get a cab and go back to post..............so he did, or so I thought.
The night went on, had our normal fun, and it was time to go. Might had been, 2am. By this time it was raining. I was going back with this one dancer, (use your imagination), a buddy was driving.......so it was me, the buddy and a girl, in a single cab truck. Headed toward post, the driver had to hit the brakes hard. We heard a loud thump in the back. No big deal, we thought, was likely the cooler in the back sliding to the front. So we kept on driving. Getting to the check point, and slowing down, we started to hear some thumping in the back of the truck, again the cooler moving around in the back.
We got to the MP at the checkpoint, and as per normal, he asked if we had been drinking, and of course the answer was not really. The girl with me, I suppose, felt trouble brewing so she got the MP's attention and boom, flash of her chest. the MP's eye lit wide open, and then, mezmerized, waived us forward. We were in the clear........or so we thought.
We got about 10 feet and heard a loud yell......"STOP!" Oh fuck, somethings wrong, "the beers in the back had come out of the cooler" we said. The MP pulled out his maglite flashlight (one of those big ones), and shined it in the back, then to us through the back window. " Get out of the truck!" he ordered. So we did, and found what was making all that noise in the back of the truck.................it was the guy who I told to get a cab back to the barracks. He was so plastered, he jumped in the back of the truck, and passed out. The noise we had heard while slamming on the brakes was him flying forward and hitting the front of the truck bed. Problem was, the motherfucker was stuck under the toolbox. (this was before everyone had a bedliner in the truck bed, and the surface was nice and slick. That coupled with baby oil form all the dances he had got= stuck as a motherfucker under the tool box. There he was, half passed out still, soaked from the rain. We left him there until we got back, and pryed his ass out.
the MP asked if we knew who this was, and we said "yep!" He waived us through.
