God You Have to Love Florida!

My Ride Prize `WOW``!

I was on a Motorcycle Poker run today for a lady who lost her leg when a car ran a red light and hit her, tragic and no surprise the motorist in the car had no insurance, kind of welcome to Florida Shit!
The ride was real well attended and lots on money was raised in support of this lady, well done to all of the local area bikers.
The run was $10 for a poker hand, I did real well with a 5 card straight, one of the better hands for the run. One of my riding partners won the entire run with 3 aces and a pair of 10's, SHIT, but well done Teresa. Teresa very graciously turned her winnings back to the lady for whom the ride was held. Lots of silent auction items where the values of the items were exceeded along with a live auction where folks turned the items back over for re-auction, all extremely well done. I think everyone went away feeling real good about the day.
There was also a 50/50 draw, most of us just turned our ticket back into the cause.
I addition there was a random  prize draw with tickets, They posted 3 of my numbers.
I arrived back at the condo to discover a hat, t-shirt, beer cover/coolers, a box of screws, flashlight, a couple of red flashing lights and where else but the USA could this happen:

Smith & Wesson Extreme Ops Tanto Automatic Knife (3.25" Black Plain) SW50BT SWITCH BLADE

If you like the Boker Magnum series then you'll love the Smith & Wesson Extreme Ops SW50 automatic knives. These knives feature great quality and action at a low price, $69.95. The SW50BT has a black finished 440 stainless steel tanto style blade with a plain edge. The black coated aluminum handle features grooves to increase grip and a tip-down stainless steel pocket clip for easy carry. The push button quickly deploys the blade and this new version of the SW50 has a front mounted safety!
Specifications:
Overall Length: 7.75"
Blade Length: 3.25"
Closed Length: 4.5"
Weight: 4 oz.

Man I love it but it may be considered a concealed weapon here and for absolute sure it can not come back to Canada. POOOF press the button and out whips the blade at great speed and it locks in place.
I guess as a Canadian I am continually amazed at things here in Florida.
