live in to play golf you have to pay sales tax 5% and a 12%
entertainment tax to play at a local muni course and we are not a
golf destination.

I'll see your golf tax and raise you....tax on a speeding ticket!

Yup, in Colorado (at least in the Front Range counties), you pay
sales tax when you pay the fine for a speeding ticket.

They so much the same around here only they call it court costs. You pay it
no matter if you take the ticket to court or not.
