Interesting this topic came up.
So, I'm on duty last weekend helping out directing traffic around the high school football stadium. We always seem to run out of handicapped spaces for home games so we save extra parking spaces next to the stadium designating them as handicapped to compensate for the lack of regular handicapped spaces. As I'm directing traffic a Honda civic rushes up to me and the teenage girl rolls down the window and says "I need to park in one of those spaces by the stadium!"
"Sorry ma'am, those are saved for handicapped. Are you handicapped?" I asked.
"No, I'm a cheerleader."
I replied, "well that's almost good enough, but not quite. You are going to have to park with everyone else."
Bless her heart, I don't think she caught on, but she did go park out with the general public.
