HAHA, my dad's 86 Chevy Astro does this, you can take the key out while its running even.
I had a teacher would had a vehicle that you could do it too and he accidently locked his keys in the house after starting the car and driving across town, he had to call his wife to get his keys and then bring them so he could start the car after his meeting.
