How did you survive the blackout of 2003? Vol. West coast NT'ers don't get smart with us lol

wasnt there, but similiar situation happened when i lived in guam.had a 8.2 quake.hotels fell,poles fell and wires were snapping everywhere.out of power for 1week..no hot water...terrible ..hope i never have to go through something like that again
 
I drove 45 minutes to my moms house bc she lived in a little pocket of lower MI that still had power and chilled there for a couple days
 
That was actually one of the most fun nights I ever had.

My mom brought out the candles, cooked some food, and opened some drinks. She lived in an apartment so the whole floor was partying.
 
I was in the park with the locs, just shooting the breeze....heard there was lots of looting going down on Flatbush ave though
 
As soon as I came out the barbershop, the power went out.. walked home to find out that the power was still out. I was pist bc I just got the new madden thatday and was dying to play. My cousin had it worst though. Dude was trapped in an elevator for hours by himself lol.
 
I remember being at Six flags in jersey when mad people started calling me asking me if I was ok.. I just told them yeah I'm in jersey so im good..Everything in the park was working fine, so we just chilled in jersey with my dude JJ til about 2am and drove back to BK then.. $#!* was looking mad deserted,hard as hell to find a gas station.. When we got back to BK it was OD hot, couldnt even fall asleep

Played ball in the dark lit by garbage can fires. Walked around smoking freely playing cards and drinking on people stoops. We made do. It was a fun 2 days. Everyone was outside enjoying each others company. The park turned into a free shooting range. Everyone was busting their guns in the air.


Only downside was the sweltering heat and lack of hot water and a crackhead took a crap in the building lobby.
