I watched a few of these since at the time I was a judge at ASU for students appealing tickets. Now that's funny when you see all the lame excuses they have for getting the same ticket every few weeks. They act like it was the first one as if we didn't have a record of how many times they parked in a handicap spot or some other reserved area.
The ticket on the windshield trick was tried sometimes, but we started checking, especially if it was at a parking meter. We could issue a ticket every two hours at a meter.
The best was when I was just at the front desk at the Tempe campus and some football player had his car towed. He comes in with his mom and she's going off crazy cause we towed her babies car. I just stared at him with a look like "you're a big football player and you needed to get your mommy to fight for you?" Pathetic.
