If I take mine to a place like that I try to park respectively but out aways, most fat Americans aren't going to park that far out as they'd have to walk more then 50 ft to the entrance lol.

Not all "classic" car owners shy away from the front doors at WalMart. (Note the plate!)
This one was in the closest space to the door at the Hudson NH Wally's.

It's been over 4 years since I took this pic and I finally found an excuse to post it.

Are you straddling the line? Even out there, that's enough to enrage some nut to scratch your car because of your "rudeness."...

The last time I parked the Vette in the north 40 a pickup was parked by it when I came out.

The guy inside just wanted to tell me that he wished the C8 looked more like mine..
