They should have told him to get back to work. Look at that line of cars!

Wow thanks for the gold! I always loved this picture. I’m glad everyone else does too.

I wanted to clear a few things up. This was in South Texas. My uncle has no line on his side of the bridge. That line of cars is on the other side, not for him. Also, he worked in the TOLL BOOTH for the bridge. He was never an immigration officer or part of any border crossing decisions. Just a kid out of high school working his summers in a toll booth.

Also, he’s loving the nice comments and comparisons. Keep them coming and we’ll relay them to him.
