When I was 13, one of my uncles had his nice '86 Regal taken away because he was caught driving with no license and he was deported for being "illegal." A few days after being in Tijuana, he comes back... "illegally."
One day my father goes to Fresno on a business trip for a week and leaves the both of us home alone. The second day of being alone with him, he grabs his bike and tells me that he'll be back in a few hours, so I say "okay." The night comes and he's not home so I assume he met up with some friends, got fucked up, and slept at one of their homes. Next day comes, I assume he's still with his friends. Night arrives and he hasn't called to check up on me. Third day rolls by and the phone rings. When I answer it's him talking about "estoy en Tijuana!" ("I'm in Tijuana!") and asks me to tell one of my cousins to get his (my uncle's) bike from the sign he chained it to.
When he "illegally" comes home later that week, I ask what had happened and he said he showed up to the court house demanding that the car that was taken from him be handed back to him and was immediately put on a bus and sent back to Tijuana.
I still laugh at him about it 'til this day.
