And also, while I'm at it, are there any other oddball requirements for getting into/out of/around this country that I'd never think of but am not aware of? So far I have proof of onward travel, proof of funds, and original credit card used to purchase domestic airfare...what other curveballs are out there?
There's no thread or discussion because no one is ever asked to show proof of funds (oh, sorry, you didn't want to hear that.) It isn't an "oddball requirement" nor is it a "curveball". While it may technically be a rule somewhere in the written immigration minutiae, it isn't enforced.
