Thanks to Metro fare increases, if I put this GIANT $1,000 check on my smartrip card it should last about a week and a half.

"Metro fare machines now accept only giant checks because they're a lot harder for employees to steal than bags of coins. We apologize for the inconvenience."

NOTE: Metro only issues refunds in the form of promotional checks. These checks can only be cashed at New Carrolton station Thursdays 1-3pm.

Look! It's the money that Metro plans to spend this year, on actually repairing/replacing malfunctioning equipment!

Here, Green Line rider Max Harrison is about to be jumped by rapscallion teenage gang members. The last thing he overhears is "GEET 'IM, PAW!"

I finally got my refund check for all those times I ended up leaving the same station I'd entered because of delays.

I see you finally got your refund check from all those times you left the same station you entered due to delays.

“It’s only a temporary job! It’s only a temporary job! When I get hired to work for Publishers Clearing House, I’ll get to drive my own van!”

P.S. LOL! Anyone notice that the name of the company issuing the check is called No Limits? Maybe the next large check delivered via Metro should have a temporary sign over the company name “No Limits except when riding Metro!”
