Very similar to what Van mentioned. About 20 years ago, 4th of July weekend at the Maritime Academy, guy pulls up in a Volvo wearing the full Harvard professor of philosophy get-up---pipe, beard, tweeds, snap-brim cap, the whole nine yards. He rigs up a sinker on a fish-finder, then attaches a Gibbs pencil popper to the end, casts and puts the rod in the rocks.

Launch ramps are always good for a few hoots.

Then there was the night two drunken kids ran daddy's 36' sportfisherman (loaded with 8 Penn International 50W outfits 6and electronics worth more than the boat) up onto the rocks out at Montauk. How they missed that big lighthouse on the bluffs is still kind of a mystery :
