Eric Forman was never the popular guy. He never had any luck
with girls, he never excelled in sports, and never got invited to any parties.
But that was all going to change in one crazy night.
It was April of 2011 and Eric was
determined to end the year with a bang. He ran into a couple of jocks in the
hallway for their usual harassment. “Eric your such a dork, you always do
things the right way” they continued “momma’s boy”, “teacher’s pet”. Eric
finally made it out the locker and said “you know what fine, let’s make a bet”.
The jocks looked at each other and seem interested.
“On prom night, I
will steal a garbage truck, bring it to prom, and pour all the garbage in the
auditorium for a senior prank.” Eric couldn’t believe what he had just said. “Under
one condition” one jock says“you have to do all that while holding a sewing
machine. sewing machine? Theses guys are just as dumb as they look. “Ok I am
in.
Prom night had
arrived and Eric was sweating bullets. He had hired a guy who knew someone with
a truck he could borrow. Eric would wait for the guy outside the back door of
the school. No way was Eric thinking about doing this on his own. Eric was so
anxious that he took a walk in a near by park. “I can’t go through with this, I
can’t, Eric said to himself. Eric looked around and noticed a truck. “Wait!
Eric walked over and said “Henry? What are you doing here?” “Hey Eric I stole
the truck you wanted” Eric was fraught with anger. “I thought u knew a guy who
would let you borrow the truck, not steal it!” “Yeah well things got
complicated” explained Henry “Hey kid I think you better get out of here, I
think the cops are coming.” “The cops!!” Eric yelled.
Before Eric can
say anything else Henry was on his way except he got so nervous he put the
truck in reverse and then it landed in a ditch. Eric walked back to the bench
and act like nothing happened. He noticed his grandma’s sewing machine still on
the bench and almost forgot it went along with this ridiculous bet. He was far
enough away from the scene so the cops wouldn’t question him.
The cops
arrived with what seems to look like the owner of the truck. Eric started
walking when a police officer stops him. “Hey young man!” shouted the officer
Eric turned around feeling wary. “I need to ask you some questions son” “did u
see what happened here?” “Umm no, no officer I was on way to my grandma’s and
bring her sewing machine back. Eric
said. “well your well dress to be going to your grandma’s house. “Well
officer….Officer Richards the officer interrupts Eric. “Well officer Richards,
I’m on my way to prom. Eric couldn’t believe how well his story came together.
“Well you get on your way don’t want you to be late for prom, ahh the good old
days” Officer Richards says as he linger into his thoughts. “Well ok” Eric says
uncomfortably.
Officer
Richards walked away. Just then Eric knew his plan failed. “Oh my camara.” Eric
reached in his pocket and grabbed his camera his mom gave him. He seen a man
walked by and says “Hey can u take my picture please?” “yeah sure kid.” Eric
had a picture to prove these jocks even though his plan fail through he still
accomplish the unthinkable. Well at least in his mind.
