March 8, 1999
This was my worst chase yet, a lot of time and driving for not much
at all. It was a great learning experience though.
Date: 3/8/99
Parthers: Tony Waters, Kristina
Delia and myslf as the driver
Miles: 687
Summary: A long drive for Pizza Hut
The
Chase: Well this turned out to be my first
real bust, and a pretty good example of a freshman who really doesn't
know a whole lot thing about chasing yet. Everything looked good in NE TX
and we decided to try it. SPC had a high risk out, so really things did
look pretty good. Storms just never developed. We headed SE on highway
3 from Norman all the way to Idabel, OK. There a quick stop at the
library showed things still appeared nice in NE TX. We continued into
TX, and to make a long story short, watched the infamous cloud that
everyone else chasing in that area saw. We ended up watching it to New
Boston, TX, where we stopped for the ritual torure after a busted chase,
Pizza Hut. There were many comical moments, among the 3 separate times
they messed up our check at Pizza hut, but nothing all that exciting, so
I will save server space for the more interesting chase logs.
