You know the pain when you're at the mall, usually during the Christmas shopping season or something, and you're getting frustrated searching for a parking space? You're weaving through rows, slowly following people with bags to their cars while trying to act inconspicuous, lurking like a predator for any potential drivers backing out of their spots -- you know, any tactic necessary to find that empty space.
Ah, and then you think you've found one! You slam on the gas to get there before the miserable dad in the Dodge Caravan, and just as you peek around the car next to the open space, you realize some jerk in a car much nicer than your '96 Toyota Camry is parked on the line just far enough over to steal two spaces.
Your search grudgingly continues, but man, you wish you knew who that guy was. Well, as it turns out, it's Alex Ovechkin.
That, and his license plate is pretty tacky.
(Ed. note. Another view: when you're Alex Ovechkin, and you drive a murdered-out Mercedes SL65 AMG, with the black-on-black rims, well, then you can park wherever you want. Including inside the mall.)
