That reminds me of a time a couple years ago when I was swimming somewhere I didn't belong. It was pre-Trump and I'm white, so I had no problems.
Some friends gave us their extra wristband for access to their neighborhood pool. My wife and I took our kids one afternoon. I'm the kind of person who gets nervous about doing anything kind of maybe possibly against the rules, so I was a little nervous we would be caught. I decided I wasn't going to fraternize with anyone.
Of course, I ended up getting into a conversation with another dad and OF COURSE, he asked me where I lived (in a friendly way, trying to get to know me better, not in a "you don't belong here" way). The neighborhood has two halves of sorts, so I figured my best bet was to say I lived on the other side, as I thought there was a greater chance that people using the pool lived closer to it.
"I live on the other side of the neighborhood."
"Oh yeah? ME TOO! What street?"
