Went to the local park today. All in all, not a bad day. $6.57 in clad, a small childs silver ring, and a Toy Car!!!!! After returing to my truck I pulled out the toy car from my pouch, knock the dirt off and thought I'd give it to one of the grandkids..... I decided to put it in my pocket until I got home. This is were the trouble started... At about a half mile from the park and 60 miles an hour later.... I realize something is wrong. Aparently, the this tiny car is the housing for about 200 red ants. Needless to say, trying to get rid of ants while standing on the brakes...... Well, no good driver awards for me. I quess the if there is a good side to this story is that I didn't encounter any law enforcement. I would have had a hard time explaining the lack of pants........

Yet another lesson learned......

The ants were evicted. I retained ownership..........
 

I had a bad experience the other day...Was digging for a coin and was sitting right on top of an ant hill...Man what a mess...I got the hebbi jebbies trying to get rid of them
 

LoL, Luckly around here if you stir up an aints nest most of them flee and you can work around them.

Keep @ it and H!!
 

another thing that I just thought of the older cars probably have lead paint too?

that would be about right...........
 

most important thing,you learned from that experience and now we all did thanks to you.
 

While I know it was painful and embarassing, it is also very very funny. Thanks for sharing, it made for a great laugh.
 

Yeah that would go over well "you see officer, I was in the tot lot..." as you sit there no pants!!!!
 

I am assuming these were just itchy ants and not FIRE ants..... ;D....NGE

Not so lucky. . . Fire ants

Hence the willingness to give up the pants.
 

YIKES! I never put anything in my pockets til every conceivable hiding spot is cleaned......NGE
