Nope,

Closes I have ever been was on a Uni Pub Crawl.

About 20 years ago, I was quite intoxicated and we were walking past Hungry Jacks and I felt like I needed to get a coke.

After getting my drink and talking to everyone in Hungry Jacks, we were then walking to the next place, I decided I'd had enough of my coke and being drunk, thought it might be a good idea to try and throw the hungry jack container (1/2 full) into the bin about 5 meters away. It was a sure fire thing, I could not miss. Or so I thought!

I saw the bin and tried to lob it into the bin. The attempt was about 10 to 15 metres in the air and about 5 metres away away. It missed by a mile and nearly hit a police officer patrolling the area (Rundall mall in Adelaide). I guess the one saving grace I had, as soon as it looked like not getting anywhere close i yelled "oh shit" and ran after it and placed it in the bin.

The police asked If I should be heading home and gave me a very stern warning about no more drinking and if they saw me do anything stupid that night, I'd be "going home in the back of a divvy van"

Arrested, locked up for 4 hours and fined on the grounds of refusal to leave a licensed premise.

Shot my mouth off at bouncers upon leaving the nightclub and they cracked the shits and pinned me to the footpath. And got cops involved.

Recently I had to bribe a bouncer $20 to enter same nightclub so says a lot about the joint really.
 
To be serious for a sec -

Tried to get into the Crazy Horse for free , arguing with Josephine like the pissed muppet i was , 2 plainclothes walk up to me , don't ask me why they were there , anyway i feel the hand on the shoulder , turn to see 2 random guys so i give him the 1-handed pushoff - bang " ASSAULT POLICE "

Back at the watch house they tell me to assume the position , hands flat on the bench , legs spread.
I hear the snap of a rubber glove , spin and say " NAH **** OFF " , place lost it , tell me it's for my pockets , thumbs up and apologies for the lot fro me.
Into the tank for a 2 hour snooze , wake up to a voice on the loudspeaker sayin i could go.
Free cab ride home cos my mate had waited , stolen a few bottles of piss from some hotel and bribed the cabby lol

FOOTNOTE - Plead guilty even though it was a bullshit call because i deserved it for bein a dick.
Was like a $500 fine iirc
 
Only time I've been nicked was for urinating in an alleyway in Freo when I was 17 on a pub crawl there.

The cops grabbed me and my mate who was also having a slash and frog marched us back to the Freo police station where we were fingerprinted and had mug shots taken, which seemed a bit excessive for a such a minor offence but we got off lightly compared to other young blokes that ended up there.

Since I was 17 they eventually just let me go after booking us for an appearance in Children's Court but my mate was only 16 so had to get his old man to pick up him up as he was considered underage or something which he wasn't too happy about.

We got let off with a warning in Children's Court a few weeks later due to it being a first offence but even the judge thought the cops were wasting her and their time arresting us for something so minor.

Bloody umpires even had it out for you in real life. :o
 
Did a 9 month stint at the old "Coburg College" back when i was 22. Am now 48 and been clean as a whistle since. Fair to say I had a lot of time to think about my life and the path I was going down.

20 odd years ago at same place ... bucks night. Some of us wouldnt buy a drink (exorbitant price). We were pissed as ... told staff "**** off" when they asked us to leave.

5 minutes later cops arrive and ask us to leave quietly ... we were happy to do so ... strippers were awful ... lol

Never arrested. Fair few fines, warnings, and move on directives though. All basically for things done while drunk, or just simply being drunk. Some of those times the copper was a dick about it though, like once, have an open stubbie from a takeaway carton from the pub, walking to the taxi base as it isn't far. Copper sees me, asks me to pour out my drink, fair enough, I was in a dry zone. He then tells me I have to pour the whole carton away, since I've demonstrated an intent to drink them already. This is when a mate who was with me gets argumentative about it. The copper says we are intoxicated and have to leave the area immediately. It's a 4 block walk out of the dry zone. We are 50 metres from the taxi base. Not good enough apparently.

A little bit of common sense and discretion wouldn't have gone astray, especially since, you know, intoxicated people were getting jumped regularly by groups that hung out in the parks on the edge of the dry zone around that time.
 
Traffic coppers and life GD coppers give the rest a bad name.
 
Interesting fred.

No never have funny enough.

I got picked up by the coppers for being drunk i mean waay drunk i couldnt walk by my self,freinds were holdjng me up.As soon as the cops rocked up I fell to the ground as freinds took off ummmm great freinds.
Oh i couldn't even talk either,some how they got my address and took me home.
I found out the copper who took me home was waay pissed off becuase i covered the back of the dvvy van in spew.

circa late 1970s, a group of friends and i ran from police (on foot) through the streets of toowoomba, they caught 2, not me though. they spent the night in the lock up, just the usual drunk and disorderly childish stuff.

case 2 also late 70s, i was a complete idiot back then and did a lot of drink driving, came around a sharp corner and slid out of control spun a few times and ended up next to a tree on the footpath, probably would have ended my life right there if i had hit that tree. anyway the police happened to be parked about another 20 meters up the road i tore off in the car with them in hot pursuit, it was night time in camp hill, brisbane i turned my lights off and some how managed to get away from them as the flat i was living in at the time was only a couple of miles away, how i didn't go through the wall of the garage that night is a mystery.
 
Never been arrested, but I have officially been on parole.

When I was a student over there, I was re-entering the US after a day across the Mexican border. Except my visa renewal was not in my passport.

Passport confiscated, parole card issued. Order to appear at the federal building in Chicago to regularise my alien status.
