Great Balls of Fire
Grass Valley, CA
At 11:32 p.m., a man called from the 300 block of Alta Street to report people were making fireballs and compression from the fire was causing his house to shake. Police checked the area and were unable to locate the fireballs.

I wonder if he happened to mention whether or not it was a 6th level mage with his wand……D&D can easily be confused with reality after the first 6 “potions”, ya know.

I gotta say. Without Grass Valley, this blog wouldn’t be nearly as entertaining. I’d be willing to bet, though, that issuing an inexpensive video camera to every resident (to document these mysterious claims) might cut down on the number of calls to 911 in the long term.

This was at 11:32 pm. Was there a chili cookoff in town earlier in the day? A big “2-fer” at Bob’s Beer and Gutbombs? Someone made the mistake of eating a whole bag of “Wow” chips followed by a chaser of sugar-free sorbitol candy?
Any of these can cause a gaseous explosion easily mistaken for a fireball. Especially the WoW chips and anything made with the sugar substitute sorbitol. (Read the small print, folks. Why eat anything with a warning on the package stating “may cause intestinal gas and anal leakage”, unless you intend on entertaining a group of junior high boys?)

Berlincoln ….. the anal leakage they are talking about isn’t gas …..
I don’t even think teen boys would be entertained by that …..

But just the term”anal leakage” will send any 14 year old boy into fits of laughter. Just ask my grandson….
