This is exactly why I never park my car in public. It seems like when you own a Vette it becomes a magnet for idiots to destroy. In motion as well, two weeks after I bought my Vette a semi trailer's rear door swung open right in front of me. Thankfully I decided before it swung open to hang back and not pass the truck, Had I passed it, it would have tore the top off my car and possibly my head with it

Many stores have PA systems. Many store managers have great senses of humor. I love a good announcement.
