Some kids tried to run over a coyote and crashed their truck
Jan 22
2013
Like all other regular people, I did a lot of dumb things when I was a teenager. In addition to maintaining embarrassing MySpace and LiveJournal accounts, I once followed a guy through that drainage tunnel because he looked cute in a spelunking helmet. Another time, I threw a party when my parents were out-of-town and made trashcan punch out of sparkling grape juice. There was also a three-month period when I integrated myself into the entourage of a teenager garage rock revival band, whose members all bore an uncanny resemblance to Blake Anderson.
Oh well, I guess all that isn’t too bad. At least I didn’t flip a truck while trying to run over a coyote.
From News on 6:
The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says two teenagers are in a Tulsa hospital after trying to run over a coyote in a field in rural Rogers County Sunday night.
Troopers say Paden Begley, 17, of Oologah was driving on Old Highway 88 when he saw a coyote in a sod farm field.
The OHP report says Begley drove his 1989 Dodge pickup truck into the field in an attempt to hit the coyote. When the coyote “took evasive action,” troopers say, Begley turned the pickup sharply causing it to roll one time.
The report states a passenger in the pickup, 17-year-old Taylor Shelton of Claremore, crawled back to the road and was able to flag down a driver who reported the crash to the OHP.
Both teens were taken to the hospital with head, leg and internal injuries. Neither teen was wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash.
No word in the OHP report on what happened to the coyote.
Wow. I always thought cow tipping was the strangest and most abusive redneck pastime I had ever heard of. But unsuccessfully plowing over a coyote in a pick-up truck??? Yeah, I think we can all agree that just reaches all kind of new lows. Hopefully they didn’t swallow any of their chew or tear the Confederate flag decals off their Dodge.
On that note, were they driving a Dodge or a mail order kit truck they purchased from Acme? And I thought everyone knew the best way to take out a coyote is to either trick it into running off a cliff, catapult an anvil at it, or by painting a very convincing picture of a tunnel on the side of a boulder.
Sorry, Patrick wanted me to force in some Wile E. Coyote references. I guess I don’t blame him. It’s hard to even comment on this because it was such a comical and idiotic teenage male thing to do. This ranks right up there with handling TNT explosives or shooting wabbits while intoxicated, jumping off moving speedboats, or buying a spelunking helmet in order to pick up girls.

I love it when Kharma actually works.
“Neither was wearing a seat belt”….What does that say aout our youth?, Yup MORONS..
+1 Kind of like a self-cleansing gene pool. Now if those young whipper-snappers would just get off my lawn (or field), I could get on with my nap.
They probably weren’t wearing seat belts because it would have hindered their ability to “take evasive action” if the coyote suddenly turned on them.
with a farm tag, and being that old of a truck, you arent required a seat belt. once again, CITY SLICKER. seat belts were not in his truck. it was his dad’s old feed truck from a long time ago. country kids don’t get a brand new truck for their “sweet 16″. those trucks are made of steel. him not wearing a seat belt saved his life. my best friend is his sister, and we got to see his truck, the stearing wheel was touching the back of the seat. oh but i’m sure you dumb bastards would still talk shit cause you can hide behind a computer screen. get over yourselves.
“Hey, hold my beer — watch this!”
Wow! We were typing almost the same thing at the same time.
“Hey ya’ll, watch this!”
Great minds, HBJ!
Yup.
So these 2 cannibals do a blind taste test to see whether they can tell the flavor of Marcel Marceau’s flesh from the flesh of Jacques Lecoq. They can’t tell the difference.
Conclusion: great mimes taste alike.
To those boys’ parents, I can only quote Space Ghost, who said, “YOUR SON’S A MORON!”
Which Obama Facebook post was made by those boys?
I see the tricky association you just made!
I salute these two young men. That could have easily been the coyote that’s been stealing my chickens.
A couple of little punk asses, I’m glad they wrecked their truck. What point is there in trying to run down a defenseless animal in a pickup?
I feel the same way the coyote must have felt during the morning commute on the Lake Hefner Speedway.
Defenseless animal??? They kill livestock and sometimes small children. But there a defenseless animal? You must be from the city and not from the county where we all are from they endanger people and are considered a predator.
Country kids stick together.
Actually, I grew up and still live in the country. I have 200 acres and guess what? I drive a pickup truck too. But I have never used it to mow a coyote or any other animal down because I’m not a dickhead. I also have never in my life had a problem with the coyotes that are all over the place in my area. I have 45 head of cattle and am a fifth generation cattle rancher. And country kids stick together? Against what? The packs of wild coyotes that are running rampant and terrorizing our country? Give me a break!
punk asses? dude, get over yourself.
glad he wrecked his truck? no, screw you.
i’m still proud to call him my brother.
Your brother is a dipshit.
oh and sweetheart, no alcohol was involved. learn your facts before you mouth shit you don’t know. K SWEET.
Country kids stick together… I learned something here today.
Truck without seatbelts… proven to be legal and apparently a lifesaver.
Coyotes are child killers… no stats provided but I’ll take your word for it.
No alcohol involved… surprising, but glad to hear he was at full speed in the brain at the time. Makes it easier to appreciate the dumbassery of it all.
Their public ridicule should be punishment enough.
public ridicule? how dumb are you? shut the hell up already. maybe if he was your family you might get it.
my family owns a cattle ranch in Texas. they come back to Oologah, Oklahoma to COYOTE HUNT. i have a video of it sweetheart… commentary and all! coyotes eat anything, it can run small farm owners out of business. Mine and Paden’s family own land on Old 88, just a few miles from where the wreck was. I’m glad we caught it in a trap just a mile up the road. (:
Okie Doke, i’ll be sure to pray for you.
Thanks. The people in my family DO get it, they use traps or guns to kill coyote, not pickup trucks. Thanks though.
As do we, but hey we all mess up sometimes. More than others, but oh well. I hope your happy with what you said darling. Your judgment day is coming…
Madi, I’m afraid that you and your fellow coyote hunters/trappers/abusers are the ones who will have to answer on Judgement Day. Trust me. I’m buddies with the guy who decides these things, and you all are going DOWN in FLAMES.
