It's 4 a.m. in the city and someone dials 911...
Ring, Ring
911 Dispatcher - 911 what is your emergency?
Caller - I had a nightmare and my heart is racing.
911 Dispatcher - we will send help immediately.
The red phone rings at Fire Station 1. The night watchman answers the phone…
Fireman Joe - Fire Engine Company 1, Fireman Joe speaking…
Fire Dispatch - Fire Engine 1, you are being dispatched on a first responder at the nearby housing projects (known as the "Estates"). Your patient is a 40 year old female who had a nightmare and here heart is racing.
Fireman Joe – (silence)
Fire Dispatch – Hello Fireman Joe, are you there?
Fireman Joe – Yes, I’m still here. We are responding to the projects.
Fireman Joe hangs up the phone and makes the announcement over the P.A. system

Fireman Joe - We have a first responder at the housing projects. We have a 40 year old female (pauses to shake his head) who had a nightmare.
Fire Engine Company Number One responds lights and sirens at 4 in the morning to the housing projects. They arrive and enter the housing project where they find their patient.
The patient complains that her heart is racing because she had a bad dream. But the patient does not want to go to the hospital; she just wants to get checked out.
Thankfully E.M.S. shows up. They takeover and transport the woman to the hospital. Fire Engine Company Number One is put back in service so they can be ready for the next big emergency at the "Estates" and heads back to the fire house.
And who do you think has to pay the $500.00 EMS bill?
The taxpayers of course!
Yes folks, this actually happened.
It was just another reward given in Free Stamp City.
