Barry Behrman Stuck in Mud

Lmao..

I can't believe Barry had TV coverage and did not mention the US Open 9 Ball event once!... glad he is OK...

Thanks for the post
 
Tough break! Seems like a really nice person from the interview. Glad it ended well and him and the pouch are ok.
 
How did that even make the news? Must be a slow news day. They had a reporter out there and everything.

Probably a reporter with a scanner...heard the "emergency call" and rushed off to witness the rescue LOL...

I took off one time on a friend's jet ski. Went about 30 minutes off the lake onto the Tennessee river and decided to pull over for a break. I ended up drifting a little into a marshy area and turned off the motor. Big mistake...When I tried to turn the motor back on it just wouldn't crank. It was close to dusk and I was a long way from my buddy's dock. After waving at many passer's by...they just kept going, I realized I could be in trouble.
Finally a young man and his extremely hot girlfriend saw me in a panic, waving both arms, and came over to check things out. We tried and tried to crank up the jet ski...to no avail, so they towed me back..and it took over an hour to get me back to the dock. The owner of the jetski was standing at the end of the dock, looking pretty worried when he saw me getting towed in. I explained what had happened and he dove off the dock...rolled the jetski over, and proceeded to pull some of the "grass and debris" out of whatever sucks the water thru...and it cranked right up LOL... Both me, and the young gentleman that towed me in were shocked. It was just that simple.
I gave the young man a 100 bucks for his time and gas...and told him to take his lady out for a nice dinner...
That was so embarrassing...but a lesson learned as well... I thought for sure I was going to be spending the night on a jet ski out in the middle of nowhere...:grin-square:

Well, that was illuminating.
I always thought that a 'jetski' had something to do with Polish Airlines.

:confused:
 
I'm happy to hear Barry and Buddy are alright but, as some one else said, I can't believe Barry didn't use that TV camera to make a plug for the Open. He'll have to go out and get stuck in the mud again next week. :grin:

I can't wait to hear the real story from Barry at the Open. :rotflmao1:

My thoughts exactly. Sounds like he got the billiards in after the interview though and it sounds like they will do a follow-up on him. Thanks for the video Jack. Johnnyt
 
man lucky he is ok. From what he said cruising at 30 mph and hitting mud can't be fun.
 
The reporter said: "A story for him to tell his children and grandchildren". WTH

I would have had a towel over my face and RAN once I saw a TV reporter. Stuck in the mud is not one of those things you write home about. Lol.
 
Jack,

At first glance, I thought you were calling Barry a "stick in the mud". :wink:


Eric >carry on
 
I think we have all felt stuck in the mud at some point in life, few literally though.

In all seriousness though, so glad Barry is ok. The VA Beach area in the summer is no joke, hot, humid, being stuck out in the bay like that in the mud in those conditions can be pretty bad. While he is good shape and health for his years on the planet, dehydration could have been a real issue.

It is also a unique and not a run of the mill story, which local news eats up with a soup laddle.
