LOST: Tripod in a sewer

12 years 6 months ago #145425 by Homer
Just found this on best of craigslist. This is :rofl: :rofl:

"Last night, I dropped my tripod in a fast flowing sewer, and it got carried away into the shitty abyss. If you're an Ashbridges Bay sewage treatment plant worker, and you find a black Manfrotto 752B ball head tripod, it's mine, and I miss it.

Thanks for your time. "

I don't know that I'd want it back either! But why not just call the sewage treatment plant if you want to see if they found it? Are the people working there going to be on Craigslist looking up tripods?? - I don't know, I think I'd take the direct route and just call the plant.

Now what other nutty stuff will people find on Craigslist? LOL

What? I don't care what tripod it was, there is no way! I'm just thinking about how bad that would smell.

Well I used to be a plumber at one point in my life so I would want it back. It is easy enough to disinfect it. Besides I believe he dropped it in the storm sewer so not to crappy at all except that is went somewhere else in his state down the river.
