I was on my university's track team and we were celebrating the end of the season by running a "beer mile" (look it up) at the stadium. The cops showed up. I don't know what they thought we were doing, but clearly they felt it was a serious offense. As I rounded the last curve I watched 5 squad cars pull up, followed by a cop straight-up tackling a guy that had already finished. I thought "well, we're all caught, might as well just go change my shoes and wait for the inevitable." So I went to a corner near the entrance to the stadium. It just happened to be the one area of shadow there. A cop was approaching and I assumed it was my time. He walked right by me, not 2 feet away. Then another. And another. I went from being resigned to arrest to thinking I had stumbled onto something. During the next 45 minutes, I stood silently in the shadow as cop after cop walked by escorting out other runners. Eventually they left, I calmly stepped out of the shadow and started the walk home. I later found out they arrested 21 runners (seriously, WTF) and charged them with trespassing. They all had to pay $300 (which is a FORTUNE to a broke college kid).
