Yeah me too. People have actually mistaken me for a specific cop in town. I have yet to see this doppelganger.
When I first moved to my area and was establishing myself in the local watering hole, everyone thought I was a cop... people would give me worrisome stares, like "WTF is this cop doing in here?"
Pros and Cons of a bald man
Cons:
10) Kids fear us
I think this one goes on the "pros" list.

Especially if it's a young man wanting to date your daughter......
I have a shirt that says CIA on it. If I wear that shirt I'm sure to get about 3 people asking me if I really work for the CIA. My answer is always, "if I was, do you think I'd be wearing this shirt?"

now he owns the joint!!!!!
How many here(who are NOT military or law enforcement) have been mistaken for off-duty policemen or military? Even though Im both, I always thought it was interesting.
It only happened to me once, about two years ago. I was out drinking with a buddy who used to be in the Naval Reserves. We ran into a guy in the Army who was just back from Iraq. They got to talking and after a while the guy turned to me and asked what branch of the armed services I was in. When I said none, he said I just had "the look".
Well, if you had the face hair at the time, he should have thought a bit harder.

I'm not sure if the Navy still allows beards, but the other services don't. The only other possibility would be if you were a Reservist and grew it in between your drilling times.
