[edit] "I Fought The Law" Music Video

The video start off with the Trailer Park Boys at a music store looking at the CDs and Bubbles notices the Big Dirty Band CD and wants it, but Julian tells him that they can't afford it. Ricky tries to steal it, but set off the alarm causing the boys to be chased by the security guards. The boys try to escape by a motor scooter when Julian gives an old man some hash for it, but fails. However, they manage to stall the guards with help from a woman that was watering her lawn, football teams, and a bunch of girls whose bikes were taken by the boys. In the end, the security guards catch them underneath an overpass where the band is and Bubbles comes to the camera and shows the CD cover.

[edit] Trivia

The song playing at the music store was Tom Sawyer by Rush.
When explaining why he is planning to steal the CD, Ricky said that Alex still owes him for the "black and green". This was from the episode "Closer To The Heart."
