One morning the Team Lynn members and three experienced travelers were in a ticket line at a train station. The three Team Lynn members each bought a ticket and watched as the three experienced travelers bought just one ticket.

"How are the three of you going to travel on only one ticket", asked one of the Team Lynn members?

"Watch and learn," answered one of the experienced travelers.

All six boarded the train where the three Team Lynn members sat down, but the three experienced travelers crammed into a toilet together and closed the door.

Shortly after the train departed, the conductor came around to collect tickets. He
knocked on the toilet door and said, "Ticket, please." The door opened just a crack
and a single arm emerged with a ticket in hand. The conductor took it and moved on.

The Team Lynn members saw this happen and agreed it was quite a clever idea, so clever they decided to do the same thing on the next train trip to save some money.

The Team Lynn members and the three experienced travelers stayed in the same town and on the next day when they got back to the station, the Team Lynn members bought a single ticket for the trip and watched, while to their astonishment, the three experienced travelers s didn't buy even one ticket.

"How are you going to travel without a ticket?" asked one of the perplexed Team Lynn members.

"Watch and learn," answered the three experienced travelers in unison.

When they boarded the train, the three Team Lynn members crammed themselves into a toilet and the three experienced travelers crammed into another toilet just down the way. Shortly after the train began to move, one of the experienced travelers left their toilet and walked over to the toilet in which the Team Lynn members were hiding.

The experienced traveler knocked on the door and said, "Ticket, please."
