I was out promoting a new year's eve rave several years ago with a friend of mine who was throwing the party. He had his business partner's Hummer and we were on Robson St. in Vancouver handing our flyers (I know, total douche vehicle, but it was an old school classic H1 style fwiw).
After we were done we took a drive over the Ambleside, a park in North Vancouver on the waterfront, to smoke a joint. On the way back we passed by the North Vancouver cop shop and sure enough, 2 minutes later we were being pulled over just before getting back on the Lion's Gate bridge to head back downtown.
Buddy says to me, "here stick this down your pants" and passes me his weed. I'm like "WTF", but the cop was on his way to the window so I didn't have time to think about it. Cop comes up to the window and says he can smell weed... ok, fair enough. So a couple more cop cars show up, we get yanked out of the vehicle and get the full pat down. I had two unopened beers on me and they took those away from us, threatening a DUI, even though they were unopened.
The cop cuffed me and kept patting me down, groping me and giving my pants a shake repeatedly. Lucky for me the elastic in my Calvins held and the plastic Smarties™ container never fell out or got felt. The truck got searched pretty good but there was nothing in it.
Long story short, they gave my buddy a 24 hour road side suspension, and called a tow truck. A flat bed shows up but after a lot of measuring and humming and hawing, they figure the Hummer is too wide to fit, so the owner gets a call to come pick it up. We get driven home and swear to never go back to North Van to smoke a joint.
