Lost Identification on the border
A guy traveling through Mexico on vacation lost his wallet and all of his identification.
Cutting his trip short, he attempted to make his way home but was stopped by the U.S. Customs Agent at the border.

"May I see your identification, please?" asked the agent.

"I'm sorry, but I lost my wallet," replied the guy.

"Sure buddy, I hear that every day. No ID, no entry," said the agent.

"But I can prove I'm an American!" he exclaimed.

"I have a picture of Ronald Reagan tattooed on one side of my butt and George Bush on the other."

"This I gotta see," replied the agent.


With that, the guy dropped his pants and showed the agent his behind.


"By golly, you're right!" exclaimed the agent. "Have a safe trip back to Chicago."

"Thanks!" he said. "But how did you know I was from Chicago?"

The agent replied, "I recognized Obama in the middle."

True story. Coming back from Mexico in 1970 I was asked the routine questions starting with "Are you an American citizen?" Being young,6'3",blonde crew cut,blue eyes,I looked NOTHING like a Mexican so I just popped off "Hell no,I'm a nazi from Argentina." Those people have NO sense of humor. It took hours.

Norman,

The lack of judgment due to age gives us a wealth of humour.

The border control people have no sense of humor anywhere! Several places coming out of Canada or into Ak. are really bad if you mess with them.

Travelled to Mexico and back from Canada, couple of years ago. Didn't realize till we got back, wife and my passports were expired. Smiler Canadian border guys main concern is that you pay all applicable taxes. Americans worry about the ever threatening terrorist, strong possibility it could be that 80 year old Granny in the wheel chair. Big Grin

A friend of mine was crossing the Mexican border, he is Hispanic and driving a Mercedes Benz.
"Do you have any firearms?"
"What do you need"
He was detained.

While it has nothing to do with Mexico, I was going to board a flight in Casper and had a small aluminum carry on with a fitted liner for various cameras and lenses. When I got to the front of the check point line, I asked the TSA agent to please hand search the case. Before I could explain about the cameras, my buddy, who was seeing me off, broke in with: "Hee Hee, that's the one he's got the bomb in."
I missed my flight.
