If I remember correctly we killed and buried him on the DZ.

I read this and thought about a time I had been HAD!
A bunch of folks from my unit were getting together for some motorcycle riding one sunny day. I had arrived with my shiny new Softail when one of the older fellas started to show me how cool our 10th Group Coin looked when “JB Welded” over the timing cover, Trojan Horse facing out of course.
Oh and he just happens to have some JB Weld in his saddle bag and could "Hook a brother up...if I had my coin!" At which point I naively handed him my coin and a few minutes later it was permanently set in place on the side of a 600lb motorbike.
Well we ride all day long...not one snicker, not one jeer or one laugh even as we pull up to Sufferin Basterds Bar and Lounge. But, as soon as I get in the door and it closes behind me…BAM, BAM, BAM the coins come out and I knew I had been set up! Only cost me $300! There were lots SF bikers that day!
One the bright side that 10th Group Coin, Trojan Horse facing out, is still on my bike today! Ain't JB Weld some great sh!t!
So tell us about a good “I’ve been coined” story
