My dad was telling me that there is this guy that docks his boat at the same marina he does. This guy?s nickname is ?Hog? and his nickname was given to him because of his physical attributes.
Anyway, this guy named Hog owns a bunch of pizza places in small towns and has made a fortune.
He meets this elderly woman on the internet somehow and she says ?come up and see me? and he figures he?s gonna buy a brand new wave runner and use the river ways to get to Ohio to see her.
He plans out the route and figures out where to fuel up etc?.
He calls the nearest marine dealership and says, bring me your best, top of the line wave runner. Money is no object.
They deliver the wave runner and he grabs his wallet, puts on a life vest. Everyone at the marina was saying things like ?are you sure you should do this??
Hog doesn?t listen and takes off.
Well, apparently somewhere on the Mississippi the Wave runner breaks down. I guess you shouldn?t run a wave runner for 8 hours going 90MPH the entire time.
Hog schleps to a dock. Ties off the wave runner somewhere. Goes to a pay phone and calls a cab to take him to the nearest airport or car rental place. He then calls the marine dealership that sold him the wave runner and says, ?Your wave runner is tied up to a dock somewhere on the Mississippi. You had better come get it.? And to my dad?s knowledge, Hog has yet to pay for the wave runner.
