I've saw the reverse of that happen a week or so ago. I was picking up some stuff in Oakland (a neighborhood in Pittsburgh) in a Uhaul Econoline van. When I was getting into it, a Prius driver stopped and showed his signal that he wanted my spot after I left. Well, I left and saw him start backing into it in my mirror. I then realized I forgot something, so I did a loop around the block, came back around 2 minutes later, and saw him still trying to get into the spot. I decided to wait it out, and another 3 or 4 minutes of miserably failing later, the middle aged gentleman in the Prius gave up and left and pulled into a wide open spot further down the block. Sure I could've gone the easy spot instead of waiting, but I decided to be THAT guy and while Mr. Prius was walking down the sidewalk, park in the spot he failed at with the van.
