2 Old Ladies "CarJacked" me for Duct Tape

I was just driving home and saw this full roll of duct tape by the side of the road so I pulled over and walked back toward it and picked it up and went to open my trunk and put it in and this old 70s style Caddie (I think) rolled up slowly with an old lady driving and an old lady in the passenger side. The passenger says in old lady NY accent..."hey, that's our duct tape!" --- and I (well I actually was already on the phone with Earthworks telling him about my duct tape find and had to tell him to hold on)...so I aplogized to the old ladies, said it was just there by the side of the road. They said they had just pulled away and it fell out when they opened the door. I gave them back the duct tape and had to hear Earthworks busting my chops for getting jacked by two old ladies. Wonder what they were doing with duct tape anyway.

You are lucky to be here with us. I've heard of this gang (The Walker Gang). They often stops their old Caddie and hijack unsuspecting detectorists.

And if you had just picked up a $1.00 bill they would have claimed it as theirs also.

That is too funny Bergie, I'll bet Earthworks will be laughing in his sleep tonight! HH, Mike

Re: 2 Old Ladies "CarJacked" me for Duct Tape

Very funny story. Too bad about the duct tape. Maybe they were planning to get the old caddie up to 200 mph and needed the tape to hold it together.

Funny story. I can see the headlines now. "Metal detectorist beaten by elderly ladies with canes. Left lying on side of road duct taped to sign post."

The sad fact is he really needs the stuff for either taping up his pants or control box and coil. God I was hoping for a new roll, not for him but for all of us!!!
Earthworks...
