I had my first encounter with customs in AMS last month.

I go to Europe every July to umpire a baseball tournament. That means I'm carrying 2 50-pound large bags along with a briefcase. As I'm walking out of AMS, a customs agent walked up to me and asked me about my bags. I simply said, "I'm going to umpire baseball -- clothes in one bag, gear in the other," and he said "have a nice stay."

First time I've ever had anyone say anything to me in the last 6 years.
