From the link on fake ID's:

A girl I know had an ID that put her as a native of East Haven, CT (she is actually from L.A.). Unfortunately, for her, she was once at a bar at which the bouncer knew East Haven intimately. Suspecting that her's was a fake, he said, "So, do you know Morris Cove?", Morris Cove being one of the most high-profile neighborhoods in East Haven.

Actually, the bouncer simply could have asked her what town she was from. If she said "East Haven" it would have proven that her ID was fake. People who really are from East Haven always pronounce it "Staven."
