I just used my mouth as a trumpet and did the beginning song music to the fight, and they believed me. Works every time.

I had to show a proper combo with a knee and finishing with elbow. After 20 push ups a back kick into the air.

I said yes and the officer immediately became friendly and asked how many fights I’d had.
