Mikey is a new Delaware valley CO and made me get on the forum and tell everyone a funny story about something that happened to me in Philly before I got a Del Val badge. That was cool.

I remember that:
I was staying at one of your fine hotels one very cold wintry night. It's snowing to beat the band. I'd just arrived from LA. I decided to do the old put your clothes in the bathroom, turn on the shower full hot, close the door, and steam wrinkle out of your clothes trick. I'm hangin out, watching the tube, when this horrendous fire alarm goes off. I hear all this screaming and commotion. I open my door and here are all these people in various states of undress running up, and down the halls in a panic. I close my door and hear fire engines. I think "they're coming to this hotel." Well, they were coming to my room. I open the door just in to time to see a fireman swinging an axe at it. (Doesn't anyone knock in Philly?) I thought he was going to take my head off with it. The cops come. They can't figure out what to do. A sargeant takes me aside and says "Don't do that again. OK?" Just another winter night in Philly.
