Monday Madness: Dude Where is My Car?

This was emailed to me by a friend, here is the story in her own words:


  Part of the driving experience at BYU includes dealing with the relentless parking enforcement companies that patrol the apartment complexes near campus.  They have a sixth sense for sniffing out cars that are parked in a lot without a permit.  One of the complexes I lived in seemed to be especially bad, I knew multiple people that got the dreaded boot on their car within minutes of being in the parking lot.    
            One night a guy from my student ward picked me up in his car to take me on a date.  At the end of the night he took a big risk; he parked in my parking lot without a permit so he could walk me to the door.  Since I didn't hear from him after he left, I assumed he had made it home without any problems.    
            A few days later I was surprised to find him on my doorstep.  With a look of panic on his face he asked me if I had seen his car.  A little confused by his state of distress, I told him I hadn't seen his car since our date.  A funny expression of relief and embarrassment came over his face as it dawned on him that after our date he had forgotten his car and simply walked home.  A quick look in the parking lot told us that his car had been towed.  It turned out to be a really expensive first date for him as he paid to get his car out of the tow yard.

Ha! Those stories are so much funnier now that I don't have worry about being booted/towed.
