Research question

Everyone’s heard stories, and I think some of them are on the verge of urban legend status, but as part of the research for an article I’m trying to finish, can anyone share any first-person reports of dress code enforcement by lifeguards or others at California beaches?  Swim suit too small or too low? Towel slippage while changing into or out of a wetsuit?  Citations, warnings or a good stern lecture?  Appreciate any help either in the comments or via e-mail, and will use no names without permission.
