They take the slip and offer to the next guy that pulls into the lot for 1$. There are always losers and bums doing it in eau clair as well.

My buddy bought one from a bum for different lot then he was in... of course he didn't know the lot number and ended up with a parking ticket haha. Fucking bums.

hahaha the last time i was DT it was mar.16 and this guy tried to sell this dirty crumpled ticket.. I looked at it in my headlight and said oh yeah.. feb.16th.. good one. It's always scary though because I think they're going to fuck my vehicle up

What did you do with your parking ticket? Im pretty sure you threw it out of your window upon exiting the lot.

I dont like bums either and most of them should work because they are very capable of it, but some are mellow and respect you. By you giving him your parking ticket, he could of earned a buck by selling it to the next guy(although not in this case since no1 parks at 3am) and could of got something to eat(not in all cases).

This is just me tho....i mean i dont have use of that ticket anymore so why not give him a chance to get something for himself. Even if he was to buy drugs/alcohol hes just doing it to his body so you got nothing to worry about.

I have a 'regular' bum that sits outside my office building most days out of the week with her coffee cup asking for change. Anyway, she asks for change every day and I am sick of seeing her there looking pathetic (she's extremely overweight... where'd she get the money to get so fat?), so today I went up to the office and got a big black garbage bag and three pairs of plastic gloves and brought it down to her.

I told her to clean up the area of garbage/debris, and I'd be back in 2 hours to check up. If it was clean, I'd give her $10. She looked at me like I was asking her to build a space ship. Anyway, I leave and around 10 I'm getting back to the office from a meeting and I see her sitting at the same corner... she most likely didn't even get up. The litter that was in the area was still there.

She sees me coming and says "I cleaned it all up but people are throwing more shit on the ground... so where's my $10?" I told her she's full of shit and to go drink some paint, and left.

Fuck these people. You can't help them... It would've taken less than 10 minutes to pick up that garbage.

Is that the fat chick with the little yellow minature looking milk crate thing? If it's the same one, i love what you did. She's not anything but lazy.

See, that's the proactive approach, try to get her to change her true colours.

Given it was at 3am chance are he wanted it so he could use it to scam someone else the next day or the following month on the same day. If there is time left then I may give it to them since they are least trying to find someway to get money rather then just sit there. But at why would I help them try to screw someone else like 88CRX's friend

Also, a lot of the tickets may be good until Monday 6 am so they can be re-used. If it was only 1 or 2 doing it, then fine, no biggie but the last thing I want is for this to catch on and a bunch of bums are always after me when I'm about to leave a parking lot. They can totally f%ck up your car without much consequence but if you run them over, you're screwed! Where's the logic in that? :) LOL!
