- 0:05SPEAKER_00: You walk right in.
- 0:07SPEAKER_00: They don't even check your ID.

- 0:22SPEAKER_00: Now it's a concrete windowless tunnel with guards with M16 machine guns.
- 0:27SPEAKER_00: And I was super nervous being an immigrant and all.
- 0:30SPEAKER_00: And my college buddy Ian next to me, he was like, Jimmy, don't worry, man.
- 0:34SPEAKER_00: Just just tell the American, they let you ride through.
- 0:36SPEAKER_00: I'm like, easy for you to say.
- 0:39SPEAKER_00: Ian.
- 0:43SPEAKER_00: Ian walks up, he gets through, no problem.
- 0:46SPEAKER_00: I walk up, the first thing they ask me, they're like, sir, are you an American citizen?
- 0:50SPEAKER_00: I was like, yes.
- 0:52SPEAKER_00: But I forgot one very minor detail that I wasn't.
- 0:58SPEAKER_00: I was still an immigrant on a green card, and I wasn't a full-on citizen yet.
- 1:03SPEAKER_00: Next thing you know, I was detained in this 10 by 10 box, and they started interrogating me.

- 1:11SPEAKER_00: I was like, I'm so sorry.
- 1:12SPEAKER_00: I'm drunk and I really wasn't trying to lie.
- 1:14SPEAKER_00: My friend in front of me told me to tell you I was American, so that's just what I did.
- 1:18SPEAKER_00: It was a knee-jerk reaction.
- 1:19SPEAKER_00: He was like, Well, was he American?
- 1:22SPEAKER_00: I was like, Well, his name is Ian, so probably.
- 1:28SPEAKER_00: And then the officer was like, Sir, you do understand this is a very serious offense.
- 1:32SPEAKER_00: We could deport you for this.
- 1:33SPEAKER_00: I was like, deport me?
- 1:35SPEAKER_00: I didn't even know that was an option.

- 1:40SPEAKER_00: Restart my ping pong career?
- 1:43SPEAKER_00: That ship has sailed, man.

- 1:56SPEAKER_00: If that's not American, I don't know what it is.
- 2:00SPEAKER_00: And I got very lucky.
- 2:01SPEAKER_00: This is what he said.
- 2:02SPEAKER_00: He was like, look, kid, you got lucky.
- 2:04SPEAKER_00: We're not gonna deport you today, okay?
- 2:06SPEAKER_00: But just don't ever do that again.
- 2:08SPEAKER_00: Or we send you back to where you came from.

- 2:22SPEAKER_00: Why are you gonna throw me under the bus?
- 2:24SPEAKER_00: That guy definitely watched a great wall many times.
- 2:30SPEAKER_00: But that was a very sobering experience.
- 2:32SPEAKER_00: I'd been in the country for ten years at that point, but I still wasn't American.
- 2:36SPEAKER_00: Nothing has changed.
- 2:39SPEAKER_00: I finally got my citizenship three years ago.
- 2:42SPEAKER_00: And it's you know you know it's a client.
- 2:46SPEAKER_00: My point is nothing has changed.
- 2:48SPEAKER_00: Still Asian.
- 2:50SPEAKER_00: Just because I got a new passport, nobody in any part of the world is gonna come up to me and be like, hey, look, there's an American! Holy, he looked just like Rocky Balboa.
- 3:00SPEAKER_00: Oh my god.
- 3:01SPEAKER_00: No, no, no, no.
