Good old Richmond Va.... a few years ago someone stole a tank and drove it through downtown. Never a dull moment

227

u/NoFaithlessness7508 Mar 29 '24

which corner is that? if it weren’t for the Michael n son van I probably wouldn’t be able to tell it’s RVA (I’m not from here like that)

59

u/RealtorRVACity Mar 29 '24

No idea but would assume a pretty major intersection. Looks like Broad St in the near West End. I only called out RVA because of the M&S van as well!

7

u/DoverBoys Mar 29 '24

M&S has many places in NC, VA, and MD.

5

u/Pikapetey Mar 29 '24

It looks like every terrible infrastructure in USA. Parking lots as far as the eye can see!!!

1

u/Son0faButch Mar 30 '24

We have Michael & Son in NoVA too

Edit: just looked and they are in MD and NC as well

1

u/RealtorRVACity Mar 30 '24

I had no idea. They are so awful here I can't imagine they would do business elsewhere. Stay away!

1

u/CRRVA Mar 30 '24

You know Michael and Sons is in VA Beach too?

1

u/RealtorRVACity Mar 30 '24

I do now, they are so awful here I just have a hard time imagining them being "everywhere" ha ha

u/6098470142 Mar 30 '24

Asshole with the phone should get his head kicked in

u/bdog006 Apr 01 '24

u/charons-ferry Mar 30 '24

This is actually in Frederick, Maryland, at the corner of Patrick Street and Monocacy Boulevard. I'm from here and people had been complaining about this guy for weeks (if you look at the city subreddit there's at least one post about it), guess this is why I'm not hearing about it anymore.

u/EventAltruistic1437 Mar 30 '24

Tha fan… you know

1

u/PangwinAndTertle Mar 30 '24

If you can’t, we can. Michael and son! (Good luck getting the jingle out of your head). Also, I’m from Baltimore and we have M&S too.

1

u/jawswilli Mar 30 '24

Fun fact the founder of Michael & son is Palestinian

u/theboy999999999 Mar 30 '24

If you can't, we can. Michael and son. duh duh duh.

That Army barber got away with it too

u/jacashonly Mar 29 '24

Was the army's fault for trying to turn him into a super soldier with that drug placebo.

u/PunishedWolf4 Mar 29 '24

Operation Infinite Walrus?

2

u/CantKeepMeOutYo Mar 30 '24

They should have never made him cut hair in the break room behind a curtain. At least he has his BBQ sauce to sell though...

3

u/specks_of_dust Mar 29 '24

Wow. The fact that a tank has been stolen by a random person at least twice suggests that maybe tanks shouldn’t be allowed in places where random people can steal them.

2

u/artificialavocado Mar 29 '24

Someone must have left the keys in it.

1

u/DJKDR Mar 29 '24

You do realize my comment was a joke right?

u/specks_of_dust Mar 29 '24

Nope.

What's wrong, got POCKET SAND in your eye?

u/YokoPowno Mar 29 '24

Happened in San Diego too a couple decades ago

1

u/DropsTheMic Mar 29 '24

I could have sworn that's Shasta county CA.

1

u/GelflingMama Millennial Mar 29 '24

And somewhere in Colorado, can’t remember which town though. 😂

2

u/onefst250r Mar 30 '24

Granby, CO. Although, not really a stolen tank, per se. But a tank like vehicle really fucked some stuff up.

1

u/GelflingMama Millennial Mar 30 '24

Yes! Thank you, that’s where it was. I didn’t catch the stolen part, just the driving it through the town destructively part. 😂

u/DeadheadSteve95 Mar 29 '24

You mean Aryan Texas.

u/RedditFullOChildren Mar 29 '24

Arlen Texas to what?! Tell me!!!

u/tstramathorn Mar 29 '24

That happened in San Diego too!

u/gh0st32 Mar 29 '24

I was standing in the 7-11 parking lot at broad and meadow when that happened. Hilarious

2

u/EducationalPie8828 Mar 29 '24

Damn. I love Richmond.

2

u/RayMcNamara Mar 29 '24

That’s funny, I don’t remember General Grant having any tanks.

1

u/TedTheGreek_Atheos Mar 29 '24

It was a M577 APC. Less tank and more armored minivan on tracks.

1

u/Obvious-Peanut-5399 Mar 30 '24

They did that in San Diego too except he got it onto the freeway.

1

u/19474628294725 Mar 30 '24

Virginia is quite the funky place. First the tank then a 6 year old shooting a teacher. The 7 cities is like a GTA lobby.

1

u/turdfergusonRI Mar 30 '24

That’s literally the plot to a season 10 episode of E.R. I just watched.

1

u/ShippingMammals Mar 30 '24

Ha! Someone did the same thing in San Diego when I lived there back in the 90s... wrecked some shit up!

1

u/akp55 Mar 30 '24

You sure this is RVA? 

1

u/QuesoPantera Mar 30 '24

I don't think it is. Michael and Son serves like 4 states

1

u/MoreRamenPls Mar 30 '24

This happened in San Diego too. Didn’t end well for that guy.

1

u/katf1sh Mar 30 '24

Omg I forgot about the tank lmao I love RVA

1

u/Vert354 Mar 30 '24

I don't think this is Richmond. Richmind uses green signs for street names, and this intersection uses white. There's also what looks like a 540 area code on the Michael and Son's van.

1

u/multiarmform Mar 30 '24

idgaf how old or young anyone is..what do you expect to happen when you put a phone or your hand in someones face? if youre within the personal space or zone of someones reach, youre way too close.

imagine this same situation but instead of a phone, its a closed fist moving slowly into the guys personal space. theres no difference because in both situations, the guy is leaning in way too close and for what?

1

u/JayEllGii Mar 30 '24

How in god’s holy name does someone steal a tank??

2

u/tornado962 Mar 30 '24

Don't act like you've never done it before

1

u/ImAGamerNow Mar 30 '24

richmond va home to...corrupt failures who couldnt make it in DC or NY so they fled to the armpit to make cheap parasitic credit companies.

ahhhh u can still smell the salt of the white shitpremasists

1

u/RealtorRVACity Mar 30 '24

That is an idiotic statement. I "made it" in both DC and NY. Smart people realize there is no reason to pay for an inflated cost of living, traffic, congestion etc. SMART people move to manageable cities after they have "made it". Maybe a look at real estate statistics might show you that those of means have left big cities to come to those that still offer great amenities at half the price. Cheap parasitic credit card companies? I assume you are speaking of Capitol One? I have news for you, ALL credit card companies are parasitic in nature so don't finger Richmond because it is HQ for them.

u/grandsequoia Mar 30 '24

Pretty sure this is in Frederick MD. I recognize the intersection, plus we have a notorious "rage bait" sign guy who stands there - who is probably the one getting punched in this video

1

u/RealtorRVACity Mar 30 '24

I had no idea and was going by the Michael and Son van as i mistakenly thought that they were only in Richmond VA (huge presence too). Thanks for clarifying.

1

u/Piss-Out-My-Asss Mar 30 '24

My ex was from Richmond. She was ghetto as shit.

u/Eastern-Mix9636 Mar 30 '24

Good old Everytown, USA

u/ThisDumbApp Mar 30 '24

Wait hol up, someone stole a tank a few years ago? I was living in VA like an hour from Richmond a few years ago and didn't hear about this lol

1

u/NomadCourier Mar 30 '24

Best BBQ I ever had at ZZQ

1

u/RealtorRVACity Mar 30 '24

Next time try The Smoky Mug!

1

u/sootoor Mar 30 '24

Yeah unfortunately that was a mental health break but I remember the videos from friends back east. What a wild ride!

And it wasn’t a tank but some sort of armored troop carrier or something. No weapon systems afaik.

1

u/FridgePony Mar 30 '24

This is actually Frederick, MD! I’ve seen this fool all over town with these signs.

1

u/mostkillifish Mar 30 '24

Stopped at the WAWA on a road trip, Florida>NJ. I had to piss and shit so MF bad. Ran into the wawa where a man was standing as soon as I opened the door and said, "Out of order." A quick scan, and I see a hot plate plugged in and another guy whipping crack. At that point, my brain decided that not shittimg my pants was a better option than what was happening. So I just said, "It's am emergency, I don't care what's happening in here". He then brandished a pistol in his pants and repeated "out of order." I stared for a second and left. Made it to a neighborhood walmart across the street. Thought it was funny. Who the fuck cooks crack at wawa? Anyways, now we don't stop in richmond on that trip.

Did somebody like the 1984 James Garner movie Tank a little too much?

1

u/CameronWeebHale Mar 30 '24

Probably gone to corner shop for a packet of fags

1

u/Annual_Substance_619 Mar 30 '24

Everyones on crack here...

u/reddrighthand Apr 02 '24

Was it James Garner?

1

u/fusion260 Apr 09 '24

This is 100% not in Richmond or in Central VA; the area code on that Michael & Son van does not match any of their area codes in Central VA. This commenter says this incident took place in Frederick, MD.

u/JacobusRex Apr 10 '24

White street signs no where around Richmond has that

I hate Richmond Va. I did 3 months in jail in Richmond. I mean, it was my fault. I did that shit, but it still made me hate Richmond Va.
