I tried to cross into Cambodia from Vietnam at a brand new border crossing that had just opened up and I had spent 3 days going up the Mekong river to reach it and realized I lost my exit visa, which was supposedly a big deal in Vietnam. My boat driver said the border guards would probably make me go all the way back to Saigon to deal with it. When I got to the border it was empty since it was so new and remote, and the Vietnam guard told my driver that if I bought him a carton of cigarettes at the stand over there, he would let me through. So I basically bribed my way into Cambodia.
