Crazy law breakers that we are....

So to kill time we decide to go to The Wold's Fair Marina just off the La Guardia terminal area where we were headed to pick up Trina's mom and her husband John. We pull in..see a cop car in the distance with it's lights flashing..but figure it must be some sort of malfeasance. Going about our conversation we then notice him driving over to us and figure he's just gonna make sure we aren't drunken hoochies.

Not the case.

He proceeds to tell us that the park is closed and that he will need our licenses because he will need to issue us each a summons.

Cricket....cricket...

I cannot believe it. But he's serious. He's just doing his joband I get that. I say as much and prepare for my summons-filled fate.I sense he may let us off, but can't let the guys he just issued a summons to see us just get off scott free.

Did we get a summons?

What the hell is it with us and law enforcement this year? I have to say, most of our run-ins have been great though. And we now have our own personal officer in PA. That doesn't suck. Hi Rick!

Wait... what??

He gave you a ticket for just standing there?!?

Were there any signs anywhere visible stating that the park was closed and no one was allowed there?

I smell successful court fight!!

funny thing...

one sign was covered by folige... the other not well placed but visible.

We did not get a summons... he handed us a pamphlet on being in the park with your dog!

And... he really couldn't let on that we were not getting a sumons as he really had just given one to those other people.

We win!
