Can't say I did anything like that, but I did have 2 full kegs of old style
fall out of the 98 while driving to my high school graduation party. That's
what ya get when they roll into a tailgate that wasn't shut hard enough.
Oh yeah, PSA: Don't try to tap kegs that have been dropped from a truck....
About took off my friends arm! :(
