Lol that is why you stay out of anything but a metered Taxi. You can also tell they don't know to go upstairs and grab a departing cab its 300Bht into town(Or Skytrain into Pathana for 120Bht). At least they did not end up with gems suits and relics. If they gave the guy 5$ + 20baht (.66) that is pretty decent for a day.
And you do have to wear pants in the Grand Palace it holds one of the most sacred Thai objects in the country (Jade Buddha). You would be amazed at how people do not grasp the concept of showing respect in sacred places. I watched some German tourist scream at some poor woman because he had to wear pants in the Wat WTF. The best part is I saw the guy an hour later with the funniest pants you can imagine on. That is the Thai way he may have yelled but she got him back by making him wear floral dayglo sweatpants :)
