four amtgarders decided it would be fun to amtgard in the street at midnight, about 10 minutes later 5 cops pull up and were all on a hood. Were a gang now.
OOOOOHHHH my turn with the talking stick! (computer) It was freakin' sweet. Almost handcuffed for a foam padded sword game. One cop was even dope enough to compliment my boondock saints shirt. Talking stick has been handed to fox...

So there I was... A little before 12am I am in the middle of fighting single sword with C.J. and we hear police sirens in the background of midtown Santa Cruz. A very common sound if you grow up here. So we ignore it and keep fighting under a street lamp maybe 40 feet from Rival's house. Within a few seconds we have 4 spotlights on us and a cop car rolling up from all 4 streets simultaneously. At this point we all have smiles on our faces and laugh knowing why the cops rolled up. I was the first to be led away to the cop car and searched. Then C.J. with Rival walking up after. Our other friend who we were showing amtgard too just stood by and laughed as we quickly explained our way out of all the trouble and got laughed at for being larpers.

LOL I love SC cops. Reminds me of the time a group of us were stopped for brandishing an assault rife while walking around downtown. Ever walked around a corner in to a barrel of a MP5?? I have. LOL
