Baseball game
I was at a baseball game in San Diego last year. My brother in law and I went to buy some hot dogs and beer. We were asked for ID to buy the beer (we were both 35 at the time!) and of course, being Brits, we didn't have US drivers' licences or whatever other American documents would do the job. So I took out my passport, as it's the best form of ID we Limeys have.

"Sorry", said the guy at the stand. "We don't accept passports as ID". I started to get annoyed, as if my passport is good enough for US Immigration (and anyone who's visited the US will know what these guys are like!) then it should be good enough to buy two pints of weak beer at a ball game.

Eventually, the manager came and let us have our beers. But WTF?

OK, maybe I look a bit younger than my age (thanks ancestors, for the genes) but I'm damn sure I look more than 21.
