At risk of being arrested by the homeland security thugs, I'll confess that I've boarded a flight with a fake ID (as a 19-yo college kid). 6 AM flight after the last night of exams, I go to grab my ID out of my wallet and the fake one is still on top of the real one from the bar the night before. I didn't even realize it until he handed me my ID back and said "Have a nice flight." Gulp. Fortunately, the name on my fake matched my own real name, and so all was well.
