Dad had a puncture from a rattlesnake tooth once. Guy who fixed is said it was only the 2nd time in 30 years he had seen that.

Found spark plugs, pen knife, in tires. Then when I was a young starting out gas jockey tire repair kid at the local gas station. I had a flat tire to patch, from the inside and rebalance. Pickup had Canadian plates. When breaking tire down the owner and passenger stood right next to me, kinda weird but happens. Noticed a lot of wheel weights in one spot on the back side. When I got tire on the spreader I seen a plastic bag taped inside the tire....Guy leans in to me puts a folded $50 in my hand and said hurry up and fix my tire, we got to get home. In the late 70's $50 was some cash. I fixed that tire, rebalanced, remember bubble balancers? And put the tire back on the truck. I noticed lots of weights on the other back tire as I put the patched one on the rear. No idea what that bag was.


you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!

Did you save that round? With ammo prices you don't want to throw it away. Could probably sell it to one of the new gun owning Democrats as a super special penetration round for $5.
