It was Halloween a few years ago and some of my friends and I were asked to a party at one of my co-worker, Ken's, house. So we got our costumes and off we went. Later in the night when the party was in high gear I was stood by a huge houseplant and I thought "I bet I could swipe this and nobody would notice". So I said to one of my buddies, Jim, "You watch the crowd and when nobody's looking this way let me know". So I turned backwards to the crowd and after a couple of minutes Jim said "OK go". So I picked up the plant by the pot and took off through the door. I hadn't gotten 2 feet and somebody yelled "Hey Ken, some guy just stole one of your plants" and everybody ran out the door after me. So there I was, dressed like Ed Grimley from Saturday Night Live, running up the street with a six-foot plant over my head and about 20 people chasing me. It was then I though "Maybe this wasn't such a good idea". With the incredible physical condition that I'm in the chase lasted all of 50 feet before everybody caught up with me. Ken was the first one there and said, "I can't believe you did that. What were you thinking?" It was kind of hard to explain so I didn't really try. I decided not to return to the party after that. My buddies had a good laugh at the whole thing though. Now the running joke whenever I'm visiting is "Uh-oh. John's here. Hide all the plants".
