Dye Pack Dummy
2003 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance
Unfortunately, I don't have any official references to back this up yet, but they shouldn't be long in coming. I work for Bank of Oklahoma Financial Corporation, which owns Bank of Albuquerque in New Mexico. My supervisor and I were having lunch and he told me about a bank robbery that had happened in on of the branches. Apparently, some common sense impaired individual had rushed into a branch and demanded money. Bank robbers tend to do that. So, the teller fills his bag with a bunch of small bills, equalling right around $700. Apparently, our Einstein is too busy to notice the fact that he's not exactly getting rich out of the deal. So, he stuffs the bag of money down the front of his pants and takes off out the door. Also unbeknownst to our rocket scientist bank robber was that the teller had placed a dye pack in the money she gave him. These go off after a bank robbery and stain the money, making it useless. These dye packs go off with a great deal of force so as to get every bill. (The educated reader can see where I'm going with this.) The would be felon takes off out the door hell for leather and the dye pack explodes in the front of his pants, dropping him like a stone. According to eyewitness reports, he was still writhing in pain with the police arrived and carted him off. This doesn't qualify for a Darwin because he's not dead, but that much damage to the groin area because of something that stupid just had to be reported. Submitted on 02/27/2003
