I knew of some who could because Mommy/Daddy would pay the ticket. I'm pretty sure I remember hearing a few guys I knew brag about getting out of being ticketed because of *ahem* who they were. Not convinced the star power shined bright 100% of the time on that one, though.

One jackass, who had so many tickets he was no longer allowed to park on campus, had his mother ask my former boss at the Statler "keep an eye" on the kid's car (Mercedes SUV) to make sure it didn't get towed. Daddy was a trustee and so they stayed at the hotel a lot. The former boss rolled his eyes at her request, thankfully.

I've been known to drive (a lot) from the corner of Williams and Stewart - think Chapter House - to Barton.  ::uhoh::

I'd park from 7:20 or so to 8:55ish (M/W only), and usually get out of there before they started ticketing just[I/] before 9 am.  I got caught enough times though that they started towing me anytime they saw me illegally parked on campus.  
FYI, that's 10 tickets in a semester - they'll tow after 5 outstanding tickets.

My excuse: that's REALLY early in the morning, I was often hungover, half the time I had to change into a uniform and tame my hair, no one else is parking there at that time, and I would've paid if the info booth was open early enough for me to buy a visitor's parking pass and still get to class on time.

I also think this smiley needs to be used more in this discussion: ::drive::
