Late teens, early 20's. Got hold of some mace and were sitting around smoking pot and brainstorming what to do with it. Buddy suggested using it inside at the Hollywood drive in, Oh, boy, great idea to our stoned brains.
Pile in car, more pot and laugh a lot about our coming prank. Walk thru with mace pointing to floor and sprayed the whole place. Busy Sunday night with broasted chicken special. My bud, Frank, stops between the doors and really lets fly, explaining people will gasp for air when they hit the first door. He was so right.
Ran across the street, sat in car and watched havoc ensue. The place emptied very quickly and the first to the doors did take huge gulps of fresh air. There was some puking involved and lots of coughing and eye rubbing. Raucous laughter from our vehicle as we watched and fled.
Went to Frank's house and his dad asked where we had been. Seems he had his police scanner on and knew we had mace. Busted!! He did not turn us in but drove us back by where the FD had arrived and placed large exhaust fans to clear the place. Even he chuckled.
Made the local paper the next day. Still chuckle every time I drive past the place.
