Not-All-That-Interesting-But-Relevant-Story-Time: In Santa Barbara all of the parking lots downtown where the bars are had attendants. This was before people credit card machines allowed lots to be open 24/7. Anyways, most lots had the entrance/exits at the same location so if someone pulled in to get a ticket and then backed out the attendant would notice. One lot had the entrance all by itself on the opposite side of the lot, blocked by some trees. I have many friends who would go out for a night on the town and then get someone to drive them back in the morning, pick up a ticket without entering, then leave using that fresh ticket.
