Beware the Prankster Parking Attendant

130320297_ec24b1e313_m.jpgIf you're ever in the vicinity of the parking garage at Western and Spring, and a seemingly affable parking attendant approaches you with a large wooden box and some contrived-sounding story about pets... RUN! This maniac has terrorized countless civilians with his bizarre, meticulously constructed prank. Every time its a new story: "Do you like pets?" "Look at what I caught in the garage!" "This thing killed my dog." "I took this thing home and it killed my cat." Equal parts confused and curious, you lean closer to get a better look inside the open, wire cage part of the wooden box, but all you can see is a mysterious furry tail. Then suddenly a secret lever is pulled, activating the trap door and out catapults a huge rubber spider. Then you have to watch the man laugh at you. God help you if you fall for this trick. Consider yourself warned.
