I was in a stripclub bar in Dallas several years ago, when the Texas Rangers escorted me "out back" (rather professionally) through the back door. In the parking lot outside, were three cars parked with their bright headlights shining on the door I was just escorted out of - I couldn't see a thing.
As I stepped out, three FBI agents introduced themselves and told me to 'assume the position'. They searched me, (and didn't find it) and then proceeded to 'interview' me. They knew a WHOLE lot about me and my trip to Dallas already.
When things calmed down a bit, they told me they were looking for a wanted felon, who had murdered and mutilated 3 people in the Texas panhandle area, he was from my home state, and had been seen in that bar before. When they showed me the pictures, it was like looking in the mirror. Except for the glasses and mustache, ("the oldest trick in the book, he said") I was a dead ringer for the guy. He told me they debated stunning me first because I was known to be 'armed and dangerous'.
He apologized, thanked me for my cooperation, told the strip club manager I wasn't the guy, and that he should apologize also - me and my buddies drank for free, and of course all the strippers wanted to ask me "wtf?" - so for a buck, as long as I kept talking about it, they'd stand in front of me dancing and asking questions.
Bonus...
I was never so glad to leave to Texas in my life.
