This past summer I worked on my uncles cattle ranch. so he has everything that you could ask for in order to make being a ranch hand easy. He had many mule atvs, 4 wheelers and old trucks that he let me drive around on the land. All summer long me and a few buddies would go and explore the land in these vehicles all the while smoking j after j.

anyways, after getting blitzed, we all decided to go down a trail that we had not been down before, way out in the middle nowhere. We rode around and eventually came to a dead end, so i put the vehicle in reverse and try to back my way out, when all of a sudden we hear POP WHOOOOOOOOSH. one of the tires had rolled over a small sharp stump and there was no spare. we get out to investigate and we find the hole in the tire that the air was rushing out of. we just kind of ran around he vehicle for a minute trippin out (much too high for that situation) when my friend comes up with a solution, or so he thought. He jabs a stick into the hole in the tire thinking that it would stop the leak..... it did in fact slow down the leak, and for the moment we were all relieved thinking that we had been saved, until we realized that we were just really high and a stick would not do the trick. so we take the stick out and the hole is about 2 sizes larger. so then i tell them that im just going to drive it back to the barn and that i will come back and get them with one of the trucks. so, i tell the boys to wait there while i drive the atv back to the barn, my reasoning was that their added weight would cause the air to come out faster than it already was. So i leave them there in the 100 degree heat while im am high as hell racing back to the barn, basically riding the rim all the way there. everything ended up good, but man, it was a trip....
