Late 90's/early 00's I'm passing through Boyertown and saw a fully uniformed clansman at one of the few intersections that had a light in that tiny town.

I start laying on the horn and he's waving at me thinking I'm a fan. As I drive by I've got my middle finger raised high and yelling, "Fuck you!" His wave turned into an awkward gesture.

Good times... But I never expect good news to come from Berks county, PA
