Friendly Policeman

I went to Hickson on a foggy night to watch a playoff game and I hadn’t been there this year.  So I had only a foggy idea of where I was going.  Hickson in a small town that is really only the intersection of two country roads.  I got to Hickson and was looking for the lights of the ball park.  I drove all four directions from the intersection and couldn’t see any lights.  There was a police car with its lights flashing on the side of the road.  So I decided to stop behind him and ask if he knew where the diamond was.  He was writing a report in his notebook.  So I waited at his window until he was finished and rolled down his window and asked what he could do for me.  I asked him if he knew where the diamond was and he pulled out his phone and used Google Earth to give him views of up and down the street.  He thought it was pretty cool.  He said it was just up ahead beside the fire hall.  I drove up and couldn’t see anything.  So I turned around and went back to the police car.  He then said to follow him and he drove up to the gate of the ball park and flashed his light at the empty parking lot and I realized that the game had been cancelled.  So that was why there were no lights on.
