Here's what happened: A British banker named Jonathan Burrows found a clever way to cheat on his daily commute. In London, you have to hand in a ticket or swipe your transit card, called an Oyster Card, at the end of your Tube ride. But Burrows started his commute at a station without a card reader, so he was supposed to buy a ticket. But instead, he boarded the train without a ticket, and when his commute ended at London Underground stop, he tapped his Oyster card on the way out.
