Crazy story, Tokolosh...I'll be telling people about that tale hehe
I was able to choose just the right search termsin google to resurrect this post I made last July in a "Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas" thread at the old board.

i related this story before (I was unable to locate the first time I related this in more detail)
...
but the night that this movie (Fear & Loathing) premiered i went to see it with a friend & we dosed-up beforehand
we saw it at the Ga Theatre downtown (in Athens...it was the first & only time i can remember that they showed a movie the night it opened) & as we were walking back to his house afterwards from downtown up a dark street, a cop rode up behind us & stopped dead in the middle of this T intersection & flashed his high beams on us...we were really wiggin' but i remember saying to my friend "don't look back, just keep walking & don't run"
(I include that first part of the story because it was an ominous precursor of things to come in a way)
we made it back okay & then the shit that happened after that with his little brother who was visiting was pretty much right out of that movie
after we were crashing (it was very clean) the rest of the stuff was all in mixed into this gatorade bottle in the frig...the guy that brought it to town was also crashing at the place & he knew his shit (the guy was from Santa Cruz & had a stack of Grateful Dead ticket stubs at least two inches thick) & swore it was actual Owsley...anyway, after we crashed my friend's younger brother (who had been denied access to the dosage earlier) went into the frig & drank the entire rest of the bottle!
we awoke to his brother smashing the fish aquarium & then he started eating the fish...the guy that got the stuff tried to restrain him but he escaped out the door, got into my friend's (his older brother's) brand-new car & then drove away...negotiating out of the driveway he didn't use the driveway but rather a narrow channel between a fence & a huge stone wall...then through a drainage ditch onto the street...the car was already fucked-up before he ever got out of the drive hehe & (as we learned later) would no longer drive forward, so the kid (i think he was 15 or 16) started driving the car
in reverse up the street & a couple of more streets before the cops got him...as soon as the kid drove off in the car i woke up real fast & got my shit & started walking up the street away from that house believe me
at a brisk pace
---
I heard later that the kid did tell the cops he was tripping to explain his behavior. They tore the house apart, but everything had been removed by my friend & the guy from Santa Cruz to some bushes behind the property by the time the police arrived back at the house some time later & the kid had already drank all (an absolutely ridiculous amount) of the lsd.
