The PoliceSitting in my local pub late one night enjoying the landlord's flexible idea of what constitutes his licencing hours, a bunch of drunk blokes in raincoats burst in. Requesting to be served, one shouted at the barman "It's alright - we're not coppers!"
They were spitting images of Lt. Columbo to a man. The barman laughed them out of the pub.

naples coppersa friend of mine's dad imports fine italian food produce. It's quite a big company with an excellent reputation.
One time, he had to fly to Naples. He and his boss plus a colleague were going through customs when a couple of burly local police officers cut them off and take their baggage, telling them there's a problem with the contents. They're all quite shocked, especially when they're roughly chucked into a police van with no windows.
They drive for ages, until eventually the van stops, and the doors open. All they can hear is laughter.
Turned out the man who, er, 'owns' Naples is a fan of their produce, and decided it would be a 'hilarious jape' to 'welcome' them to the city.
