Fastest way to lose $3

So I succeeded at looking like a true tourist during my stay in NYC. As we all probably try our hardest not to do so. I had been riding the subway the whole time I was there (first time experience), so I thought I was getting pretty good at understanding it.
It can be so tricky trying to figure out where to get off and on. It can also be confusing to buy your tickets for it, since its all self service. Well, all those thing’s that could get a person confused, didn’t seem to bother me. I navigated my way pretty well there, occasionally with a little help from some nice New Yorkers.
Apparently the hardest part for me was understanding how to get through a gate! I get a one way ticket for around $3 go to the gate, scan my ticket and push the gate like I have done so many times and BAM!! I so confidently try to walk through the gate, thinking I know what I’m doing and instead I smackd into it. At first I didn’t understand why it would slam shut on me and then it hit me! I pushed the wrong bars so i let the ghost take my seat on the subway.
So now the walk of shame, turn around in front of the line to go buy another ticket as I just wasted mine. As i turn around everyone has a face like they want to die laughing but they are doing their best to hold it in. So, I start laughing at myself and threw my hands up in the air and let them all know they can share in the burst of laughter. At least I could make someone smile that day right? Just to make it better… I had to get a photo of the blooper! Now all of you can enjoy at my expense!
Wander on…never stop wandering!
Free Bird! ✈
