We were in a parking lot behind a dumpster in an early 80s Buick when a cop pulls up beside. He didn't even get out of the car, just rolls down the window and asks the girl if she is alright. Considering she was on top at the time, it seemed obvious. Then he drove off.

At a trade show in Reno(early 90's, the one Doug Peacock swilled/spoke at)..top of the stairway of the hotel/casino, the door to the roof was locked. WE said fuk it, lets do this! The roof woulda been hella cooler!
Taco sidenote, same night I was downstairs at a poker or blackjack table where I happened to be sitting next to the Fish, he wouldn't stop using both hands to hold his cards. This was pissing off the dealer, I think the pitboss swung by to handle it?? Anyway, funny as sh#t. I don't know him but could tell he was quite the character or smartass or..!!

Under the stage at the old Avalon Ballroom in SF while Steve Miller was playing "Buy Me a Mercury". I could hear Steve's boot tapping out the time and used the beat as a sort of metronome. Worked out well, but kinda messy.

Mile High club, somewhere over the midwest. The idea of it sounded kinda sexy-glamorous, but actually doing it in that tiny, well-used place felt pretty ghetto. Probably wouldn't do it again.

I was 25 and got stone cold out of the blue dumped in El Cap meadow, by my GF and fiance of 4 yrs.
My friend Brandon lived in Park housing, and was nice enough to open the door at 5am and let me stash my haulbag for a day. I had no car.
I soloed the Shortest Straw, came down for a shower met a girl. Next day I climbed (over many days) Scorched Earth. Came down to take a shower, had some beers with same girl. Next day launch and climb Sea of Dreams. Come down and wind up on the log bench below Lower Yosemite Falls.
Such a crazy headspace to be in that whole Summer.
That was 13 years ago!!! Wow. Cool trip in retrospect.
Is any of that ghetto, or did I just blabber?
Edit- topping out Zodiac for my first El Cap topout I shagged on the Summit. My GF had been my parnter on the climb. Total novelty have never replicated the event. Dirty Climbers. Also afternoon delight on the ledge below Heart on a busy day of multi parties hauling past...both dirty, not worth it.

Dunno if 'ghetto' applies to many of the above.
However, during a 'group' climbing trip when I first started climbing, four of us stayed at the trailhead (no pun intended) in this big ass tent. My slumber was interupted by a woman getting down on me while her husband slept on her otherside. It was terrifying. What was I to do, wake everyone else up yelling, "Stop!"?

67 Buick Skylark, green, 4 door, bench seat, rolling along Hwy 210 east of Tracy, which is as close to the ghetto as your gonna get, both drunk, hops on top while i was driving, trying to see the road but it wasn't easy, kid was asleep in the back seat, on the way to a Fabulous Thunderbirds concert at the Keystone Palo Alto, dangerous, illegal, immoral, sick, twisted, child endangerment, a real night to remember, don't try this in a honda civic, Buick used to belong to a stripper at the Brass Rail, Sunnyvale,
John Lee Hooker showed up at the show, sat in, pissed himself and tried to kiss my girl as she leaned away, so we were not the only ones sh#t faced that night which made us feel better about the sins we had committed on the way in,
then there was the elevator in old sac over the hogshead brewpub, then the bathroom at fanny anns,
don't ask about the farmers market vegetables on the I-5 north of 12 mile road, girl did not like long, straight, flat roads with no trees or rocks, made her nervous, uptight, anxious,
somewhere out there is a flock of dead crows and some half eaten Italian squash, bananas, cucumbers, zucchini, corn on the cob,
that high fiber road trip cost me a fortune,

The women's shower in Hueco was way cleaner than the showers at Miguel's. I prefer ladies coming in to piss during sex than loogies stuck to the shower walls.
Having a van with good curtains turns any parking lot into a romantic getaway.
First ever was under an overpass on I-15, smack dab in the middle of Salt Lake City mid-afternoon.

This thread reminds me of my first year of college, when "purity tests" were popular. Have you done it in a train, in a car, in a plane... like Dr Seuss for young adults.
Maybe I'm just all sour grapes 'cuz I never did it in a car. Yet.

Sorry Jaybro, no cars for me. I didn't get any action at an age when I worried about getting caught by parents, I was never into the bar scene, and I've never lived out of a car or been on an extended road trip.
But check this out, le_bruce was totally crying in fear on Higher Cathedral Spire, and this is what I made him do so I'd haul him up to the top:
