WBIR: Man left behind in Tenn. while family traveled on vacation

[China]

Man left behind in Tenn. while family traveled on vacation (http://www.wbir.com/news/article/224392/2/Man-left-behind-in-Tenn-while-family-traveled-on-vacation)

Vacation plans went awry for a father from Texas when his family accidentally left him behind in Tennessee.

The man says his family left him after they stopped in Memphis to eat and fill up the gas tank. He says he went inside to get his change for the gas, but his family thought he was already loaded up, and too off.

He says he tried calling his own cell phone, which was in the van, but nobody answered.

...

"Six different cell phones and nobody answers, and my phone is in there because it's on the charger, and nobody answers it, and then it starts going straight to voicemail. I mean, that's odd. So I started imagining the worst case possible scenarios. So I called the cops," said the man.

...

By the time he made contact with them, they were already 100 miles away.

No bull. You can't accidently forget someone is in the car for 100 miles. And then nobody answers the phones including his phone, that starts going to voicemail..... :rotflmao:

The cell phone part sounds like my wife - I spend all this money each month for the service and its either out of batteries or she cant hear the ringer when I actually need to call her.

My wife's family, with nine kids, was scurrying around after church getting ready to go to a picnic with other relatives. Finally got the big station wagon loaded up with food and kids and headed off to the park 30 miles away. Upon arrival they emptied the car of kids, and found they were one short. Her dad jumped back in the car, raced 30 miles back home...and found the 4 year old still playing in the back yard, completely unaware that anything unusual had happened.

the ultimately contacting them by facebook was funny, guess they couldn't ignore that.

The night of my high school graduation every one in my family was super excited and they all jumped into the car and began driving toward the site where the ceremony was to be held. A few miles down the road they realized they had forgotten someone at home: me, the person that was actually graduating.

Sounds like a family of Redskins fans to me.

Would have been funnier if their name was the Griswolds.

That's one of nine kids, I can see how that would happen. This is the dad. This should be impossible.

This, on the other hand, is pretty damn inexplicable.

Thats why Dad named you Joe Dirt!

If he was driving, as a real man should,he wouldn't have this problem.

Giving women keys always leads to trouble :evilg:

His user name is DallasCowboysFan, so it would make sense if his family left him behind if they were Redskins fans.

That's what I get for not paying any attention to the username :silly:
