A ticket? lame.
I've gotten a public drinking ticket.
It was $500.

Baja Fresh? Shit, I've had a gift card for that place for a couple of years now and I only ever found one. Its presence in my memory was undoubtedly replaced by thoughts about my girlfriend or robots or something.
Moe's rules, though. Cinco de Moe's TNL get together?
Moe's sucks so much.
I think that's the one I saw. It's down the road from a Trader Joe's (Trader Me, imo), right?[/quote]
Don't listen to Rich. Moe's is amazing. Cinco de Moe's involves live music.No clue about Moe's.
Let me put it this way, the staff at the Moe's in Greenvale knows my friends and myself by face. We're in there just that much. Unlimited chips and salsa makes me a happy man.
Also, now that I've caught up with the millions of responses, I want to join in the Mezz praise. The man knows when to take charge and is just plain awesome. Surely there is no other Courey that could nearly fight him.
Yeah, no they didn't get arrested, Adam was being dramatic. They did get like, detained though.
The story:
It's oh, 4:30 or whatever A.M. and the jersey crew is all heading back to the path station, so we head down the subway to grab the L and the mad scramble for people with valid metro cards begins.
My boy Rafi was prepared, and he swiped himself through the spinning gate, and Thief was out of trips so he was like "I'll just go through with you!" Rafi was like, "That's cool, no one ever says shit." So they double up through the turnstile.
Then Anthony swipes his valid card but doesn't go through the gate because he wanted to make sure his friend Chris had a card. He didn't. So Anthony swiped again, i.e. paying a second fare, and then they both went through together.
Then this big black plainclothes "police officer" (read: mall cop in the subway) saunters over and take Rafi, Kevin, Anthony and Chris over to their little Transit Authority office which is you know, 200 feet away facing the fucking turnstiles which our intoxicated asses didn't bother about, make them sit down for a while, give them shit, and then issue them all 60 dollar fines.
No one got arrested, but it was some bullshit and we were stuck in there for about half an hour. Anthony, Chris and Rafi are all going to fight it, since technically they all paid a fare. Anthony was beyond pissed. He was walking around like a man in the fever, yelling "BRING ME THE SECURITY TAPES!" He was interrogating the newsstand vendor to get a witness. Chris handled it properly. He tore that shit right up. and then carefully reassembled it after he considered having a warrant out.
It's really sad because it was a great weekend and then all the bullshit seemed to go down right at the end. First there were those tickets, then this morning I find out Andi's car got towed. Fucking bummer. New York can be a real bitch sometimes, but hey,we're not Massachusetts.

I was really drunk, surprise, and I swiped my card thing, pushed at an angle that I didn't get through. So I went back swiped again and brought my friend through with me, because we had already paid for myself. Then Theif and someone else, I forgot who, also doubled up. The difference here is, I was actually trying to be moral about it, even though I didn't think there was a cop. So getting busted despite trying to be moral about something really rubs me the wrong way. Its only a $60 ticket, but I was making a big deal about them checking my swipe card to show I paid twice or checking the camera's or really anything hoping this would get cleared up easily. Whatever, I'll send in the letter and everything because I have nothing better to do.
This meetup was alot of fun. GOD DAMN is dolemite awesome, there was just an aura of a B-Action movie all around him, I was expecting high octane fights to break out all around him in the middle of drinking. Sorry I missed the beer garden, I was stuck switching around which friends I visited.
Mezz is so fucking awesome as well. Maybe the nicest person I have ever met, funny as hell too. God damn it is so cool meeting all the TNL'ers. Really all of you were a blast to hang out with.
When I got really drunk I started pushing GG on everyone lol!
