I was out of cash this Tuesday morning so I had to park in the Stanwix garage -- it's pay as you leave. A friend of mine had a similar problem. He parked a level above me. As I was leaving, I thought for a second about backing up to the exit and leaving, but instead decided to play it on the up-and-up and go upward to the next exit.
Turns out my friend needed a jump; he'd left his lights on. OK, it's not like Steven King's gonna make a novel out of this, but it's still a little bizarre.
