That reminds me of a story. I may have already told it but...
It seems that the powers to be in Mass. were tired of losing tax revenue when Mass citizens traveled to NH to buy their liquor, so the Mass State Police were directed to "stake-out" the NH Liquor Store parking lots and look for Mass license plated cars. Upon entering Mass these cars were pulled over and the drivers were cited. Well the NH powers that be directed their State Police to ticket the Mass State Police for loitering in the NH State Liquor store parking lots. The practice stopped after that.
