I got someone else's fishing license once included with mine. I just called them and mailed it back.

You son of a.....
That was probably mine.  I didn’t get the discovery pass I bought through them.  And since I’m Kik.  Lol!   At least it possibly went to someone I knew. Lol!

A few years ago I applied and was drawn for two doe/fawn antelope licenses in Montana. After the drawing I received the two licenses in the mail, along with a required $10 Conservation License.

A week later I received another mailing from Montana, which contained two more antelope licenses and another Conservation License. I called the Montana FWP and explained that I had received two licenses by mistake. They checked their records and told me “No, you are only allowed two licenses, not four.” I told them that I was aware of that, but had accidentally received two additional licenses by mistake. “No, that can’t be – our records indicate that you are only allowed to have two.” I finally gave up on convincing them of their error.

As I was concluding the call, I informed the Montana FWP lady that I’d also received an extra Conservation License and would be glad to destroy it. She warned me not to do it: if I got two I had to send one back to Montana to get a refund or their records might show that I had two which is illegal. I asked her what would happen if I just tore it up, and she told me I’d probably be arrested when I got to Montana. Not wanting that, I stuck it in an envelope and mailed it back.

A few weeks later I got a $10 refund check mailed to me from Montana. Enclosed in the envelope was another Conservation License.


How was prison?

Not too bad. They paroled me to kill my four antelope.
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.
