...that many people - especially those of you who have never bought a bean burrito and a .22 oz Sammy Smith Oatmeal Stout from a shaggy dude in the parking lot of a phish show - are unfamiliar with the brilliant use of the term "wook" as slang.
To remedy this wrong, I give you The Smoking Gun's gallery of people who were arrested at the Phish reunion show in Hampton, VA this past weekend. It is wook-central.

The really funny thing about this post is that I happen to know wook #14. This young man, who had a raspy voice like an 85 year old smoker, stumbled through the tiny pathway between the stairwell and the pool at the La Quinta Inn in lovely Hampton, VA, at around 2:30 in the morning on Monday March 9, nearly knocking over our table full of cheese and booze. He asked for some vodka, which we were happy to provide, and proceeded to tell us about his arrest and subsequent confinement in the Hampton police station earlier that day. We were happy to see him begin to depart for other madness at the La Quinta, but not before he asked for some of our grapes, which I told him cost 2 for $1, or 5 for $2. He looked at me quizzically at first, then almost laughed, then looked a bit angry. I handed our friend some grapes. He eventually wandered off muttering about his bail which was either $7,500, $75,000, or $750,000--he mentioned all three. We weren't sure what to think of this wook's story. Then I am forwarded the very smoking gun link posted by Lightnin' here. I couldn't believe what I saw when #14 appeared on the screen.
