Interesting experience last night

The woman and I left the bars around 3am and stopped at the gas station on the way home to pick up some cigs. I walk into the store area and there are three cops standing there waiting for something. I wait for five minutes because the cashier won't sell anything and the cops just keep looking around and checking out all the cars that pull up. My girlfriend gets impatient and pulls up to the front door and this young rookie cop is like "Well, what do we have here?" All three cops prepare for action until I inform them that the car in question is my girlfriend. This then leads to conversation between myself and officers for about 5 minutes on the most random topics. All I wanted to do was buy some cigs. Finally the cop asks why I am there and I inform him. They sell me cigs and on the way out the cop asks me my name. I supply him with my first name and when he asks for my last name, I provide him with the generic response of Smith. He simply states, "Now, I know you are lying to me" to which I said good night and left.

I'd really like to know what the hell those cops were waiting for.

Should have asked them.
I did. They blew off the question responding that they were there for the great coffee.

Are you sure you weren't just drunk?
That must be it. I was drunk enough to imagine three cops at the gas station and it taking over ten minutes to get cigs.
 
Are you sure they asked your name and not your alcohol blood level?
That's how they knew you're lying when you said "Smith".

Definitely asked me my last name. I've been through the whole public intox thing already.

How many beers did you have that night? 😉
 
Reminds me of an event several years ago:

After leaving a massive house party in Toronto, as my friends and I were walking down the street, drinking, a cop yelled at me to come over to his car. I ditched my beer, and as I made it over to where he was standing, he grabbed me by my arm and slammed me against the car. He screamed, "How old are you?"
"Eighteen."
"Where do you live?"
"Guelph."
"What's the drinking age in Guelph?"
"Nineteen."
"That's right. Have you got ID on you?"
"No." [I was lying. It was in my front pocket.]
"You'd better be telling me the truth; otherwise your friends will have to find you down at the station, and it's a long way from here."
"What's you name and address?"

I proceeded to give him my real address, but spelt my name wrong by one letter. I figured I wouldn't get the ticket under my name and if it came down to it I would claim he misheard me.

After he gave me a fine for drinking under age I tore it up and left with my friends.

I never got another ticket regarding that incident.

Why'd you lie?

I would have lied too. Cops standing around suspiciously, not doing anything wrong, they don't have any right to know who you are for trying to buy cigarettes. I would have told them my name was Homer J. Simpson.
