I stopped to get gas today and as I put my debit card in the pump there was a very strong static spark the pump display went all white and then came back about 20 seconds later with Out of service I tried a second pump but it lived and I got the gas.

I'm no rocket surgeon but I don't think gas and static sparks mix

Well done.

I was at a gas station once with a big rental Ryder truck, and cut the turn to the pump too close.  I completely sheared off the concrete pole-thing they have at the end of the island.  Drove right over it.  Oops.

I was at a gas station once, when a woman forgot to remove the hose from her car and pulled away...yanking the hose out with her...The gas station wasn't too happy, but I just couldn't stop laughing...

This made me think of one of the funniest scenes in movies - The Gasoline Fight - from Zoolander. Glad your outcome was different. I don't know if we have anyone in BT who can deliver a good eugoogoly.

I was once on a killing spree after escaping from prison with my brother and we came across this convenience store we wanted to rob by the Mexican border and a cop showed up and the clerk signaled him so my psycho brother shot the cop and I ended up lighting the whole place on fire then it blew up as we drove away. Thankfully we made it into Mexico before La Policia caught up to us. The bad news is we ended up at this really seedy bar.

I'm pretty sure it's illegal to yank hoses at a gas station... unless there are women dancing with snakes...

[For the OP - good thing your debit card didn't get toasted.

I was very surprised is was not ruined but I always keep 10.00 in the visor for emergencies
