RECENT OCCURRENCES
AT OWL CREEK BRIDGE.
By Lucas Klauss
Man in hunting cap peed off side of bridge, laughed at sound of urine hitting moving water.
Teenage couple smoked marijuana next to bridge, dared each other to walk out onto bridge, made out for 35 minutes.
Self-styled town historian related facts about bridge to 8-year-old son, who complained he wanted to "go to Bobby's house."
Plank of rotted wood fell from bridge into water below.
Man taking nature walk stopped by bridge, pondered possibility of someone being hanged from bridge falling into water, narrowly escaping execution, then realizing he had made it up in his own mind seconds before his death. Man taking nature walk then realized if he didn't start walking again fairly soon he would miss rerun of Becker. Man continued taking nature walk.
Different plank of rotted wood dangled and fell from bridge into water below.
