Ok we have all had those embarrassing kid/teen PARENT encounters. Let Hear some stories!
Ok here is mine.
At 16 years old with parents & lil brother in 1976 driving back home from visit to relatives in Fresno Calif.
(It took us about 6/7 days to drive cross country one way.) We took the northern route home San Fran CA> Reno NV > Salt lake UT> Cheyenne WY> Lincoln NE> Chi town> Niagra falls> Home.
Some place in NO Mans land I don't remember exactly I think between Cheyenne & Lincoln NE real flat land every exit looks the same & gas stations on runner road next to highway.
We pull up to gas up. Of course back then gas was pumped by an attendant. We wait & nobody comes out. My mom being the impatiant hot head Italian needles my dad to get out & go get the attendant. I look over & see the guy sitting at the desk not moving.
I notice a womans head bobbing :biggrin: I see my dad start for the office & do a 180. My mom is PIZZED! that he comes back without the attendant.
I am laughing because my dad was smart enough to see what was going on.
He said lets go we will get gas at another station. She harps on him as we are driving the big 1971 Chevy to the next station. He finally Blurts out to her to shut up that the guys was getting a B - J. They did not talk for the rest of day. I was laughing when he belted it out.
