Canned corn

2007 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

I couldn’t sleep one night and looked outside to see police lights, ambulance at the 7-11 store at the end of the street so went to investigate. As I walked up to the store, I first saw several officers laughing so hard they were leaning on the cars. Just then, the ambulance attendants were trying to carry the stretcher out of the store. They too were laughing loudly and when the stretcher hit the door they dropped the stretcher and the guy on it in the doorway. This caused the officers to almost fall over from laughing. No ran to help the ambulance guys but they managed to get the guy back onto the stretcher and into the ambulance although no one seemed in a hurry. When I asked what was going on, the officer explained it this way.

About 1 am, a guy had strolled into the store and got a beer and as he approached the counter he simply pulled out his penis and laid it on the counter. The female clerk, no thinking to much about it grabbed a can of corn left on the counter and hit it as hard as she could. Well, he passed out, the cops were called and the ambulance. No could keep a straight face for days over that.

I do not know how it turned out but reproduction was probably out and I bet he still shakes at the sign of canned vegetables.

Hmmm... sounds like an Urban Legend to me but we do have a lot of leeway in Personal Accounts. Let this be a warning: snakes don't like canned corn. Thanks for the story.

I agree that this could be an urban legend, but it also could be a typical night for EMT's in big cities like New York. Thanks for a good laugh!
