I think I witnessed a drug bust, but I can't confirm that. I went to Burbank to watch a friend of mine play hockey. Standard procedure after the game is that his teammates do some tailgating in the parking lot. We were outside the rink waiting for the players to get changed, and my friend was one of the first out. He notices this middle eastern looking guy in a BMW driving up toward the parking lot really slow and points it out to us as unusual. Behind this car is a mini-truck and a couple of other cars. The BMW stops, plain clothes cops get out of three unmarked cars/trucks, and then all of a sudden there were a ton of police cars with lights and sirens going, a police dog and they got this guy out of his car and began searching the vehicle. I've never seen anything like it before. After the initial commotion, it got a bit dull with the investigation. If I recall, someone just fired up the grill and we all ended up in the parking lot like normal. I was still a bit nervous about what was going on over at the other end of the parking lot. I sure didn't want to get caught in any sort of crossfire.
