That was my thought. If they felt imperiled enough to call 9-1-1, why not just blaze a trail to safety?

The manager of the farm offered the couple free tickets to come back again. They didn't answer, but their faces said no.
From that, I'm guessing "NO". At least no until they prune the corn to be no more than 3 feet high.

Hell, never mind a haunted house. Imagine the havoc a mirror room in a fun house would wreak!

What is really sad is how these idiots fell back on relying on the govt. to help them when presented with the slightest bit of adversity. I foresee a job in the obama administration in their future.
