i was at a gig once, a big show at an outdoor venue. we had parked in a field and were about to pack our food/drink into our bags when we heard an official-looking woman shouting "coolers are not prohibited".

cool! we grabbed our cooler and headed in.

turns out coolers were prohibited. the just woman didn't understand the concept of a double negative...
