Parking issues

This is why I never trust my car to a parking attendant.

That came from a movie? Is it "soccer" or "sorcerer"? I may have to see this.

Soccer. It's about a bunch of monks who play soccer. Think anime, soccer, and kung fu movies all rolled into one.

Wow, that would be pretty awesome to be able to do that on purpose! What was that from, a professional valet competition?

I've only been able to manage a sweeping 270 degree slide/spin perfectly into a parking spot once... in the snow. It's times like that when you wish somebody was video taping.

Wouldn't 270 degrees leave the nose pointing out into the street?

It was down hill, around a column and curb, into a semi-enclosed parking garage. The look on my friend's (who was driving behind me) face when we got out of our cars, was absolutely priceless.
