One night, 25 years ago, my sugarlips and I came out of the tavern, and, across the street at the garage, there was some kind of *festival* going on, at 2 o'clock in the morning.
It all lit up, and there was boombox pounding classic rock, and maybe 4-6 dozen people.
So we went to check out what was going on.
What was going on: a tractor trailer had been towed in, and trailer was full of potatoes. And it was a total loss, no way to bring another trailer and recover the potatoes.
So the party was a whole buncha people taking bushels, bags, even wheelbarrows, full of potatoes away from the trailer.
City folk might not quite grasp this. Country folk know what I'm talkin' about.
I live in *shine* country. We know exactly what to do with a semi- full of free potatoes.
@GeePawHill make a lot of french fries, potato chips, mashed potatoes, and vodka?
@fullywoolly Anything beyond a 20lb bag, you're either feedin' pigs or feedin' the still.
@GeePawHill I had an coworker ~10 years ago that bought 25 dollars worth of potatoes + one sweet potato and individually wrapped them, put them in a large box and wrapped that as well. This was a white elephant gift. The lucky winner was not happy and ended up bringing it to the lunch room for everyone to take what they wanted. Apparently he was not into fermenting potatoes.
