I never got any tickets, but my horse did.Never got even one.
But, back when I attended TCU there was still quite a bit of open pasture around campus where a man could stake his hoss all day without any problem, unless there was some half-drunk cowhand getting out of Hell's Half-Acre in a hurry and needed to swap mounts...
Zero tickets. I had no spare money for tickets and no one at home to pay for them. So I planned ahead, scheduled my classes in bunches as much as possible, and often arrived before 7:30 AM to get a good parking space.
Col MurrayI don’t remember. Of course, there is an awful lot of stuff that I don’t remember from my Vietnam era stint at TCU.
Hold on, hold on...I know this story, I saw it on PronHub.Had one from The city of Fort Worth, thought it was a TCU ticket which always was paid in the fees of tuition. Forgot about the one ticket, 3 years later, got pulled over on Christmas Eve and Arrested ! Had to pay a fine, and, insult to injury, the cop that arrested me was a girl I went to school with and she thought it was hilarious.
Good thing you're retired. You couldn't work for @Pharm Frog.Sort of related, but during the time I was an undergrad, the Campus Cops had 2 patrol cars. One was whatever the cheapest Chevrolet was, back then, donated by Jack Williams Chevrolet. The other was a Mustang fastback, donated by Charlie Hillard Ford. Both were painted a sort of lavender/purple and had a Horned Frog painted on the sides, which looked like some undergrad from the art department had done. At night, they provided a quiet spot for said Campus Cop to sleep for quite a long time. Because they were sedans, and we were young and athletic, a guy could get a running start, jump, and run right up the trunk, over the top, down the hood, and be gone before the befuddled occupant could draw his pistola. I'll bet it was really loud inside.
If you're looking for work apparently @Pharm Frog is hiring.Zero tickets. I had no spare money for tickets and no one at home to pay for them. So I planned ahead, scheduled my classes in bunches as much as possible, and often arrived before 7:30 AM to get a good parking space.
