Nerds Meet the Real World…

Per Cinescape.com:

“In San Antonio, eleven MAD MAX fans were arrested for recreating a scene from the THE ROAD WARRIOR. Nine were charged with “obstruction of a highway and two others with possession of prohibited knives in addition to the obstruction charge.”

The group, armed with fake machine guns, had “surrounded a tanker truck while making their way to a movie marathon in a theatrical convoy.”

One of the organizers said the arrests were unfair. He said he didn’t know why anyone would have confused the costumed crew with a real threat.”
