This is the best one I've ever heard working at the arena. I found it in a sociology journal I kept for a little while and forgot that this happened.
We have a special parking lot called the cingular lot. It's named that lot for sponsership reasons. It's also a very high-end lot, basically the first class of parking lots. I say first class because you have a guaranteed spot so you can come to the game as late as you want or early if you want to hang out in the club. So one night, I am in cingular lot, taking passes and pointing people to their spot. Things are a little slow before the big rush, one guy comes in and stops, I greet him and things are going well until I asked for his pass, the fun began.
Idiot: I don't have a pass, but seeing that you look like a nice guy can you let me in?
Me: Sorry sir, these passes are needed because the spots here are reserved, that's our policy.
Idiot: So?
Me: People pay a lot of money for these spots, it wouldn't be fair if I let you in for free and a paying customer didn't get his spot in the cingular lot?
Idiot: Wait, this isn't VIP?
Me: *Heavy sigh* No sir, this is the cingular club parking lot.
Idiot: Then why can't I park in here? Cingular is my cell phone network.
Me:
Sir, we don't let people who have cingular as a network provider in, this is a club where people pay money to park in these spots. The name cingular is there for sponsorship reasons.
Idiot then decides to turn around, as he turns around he says: "I still think that you should let me park here."
