Smokey in the parking lot
Lordy, that would sure cool my ardor. I had a similar experience at another place once and I haven't been back. That time it was three Smokies. You gotta wonder what's going on when that happens.
On the one hand, Smokey could have been coincidentally doing business somewhere else in the area. In my case, the AMP has a restaurant attached.
On the other hand, they could have been scoping the place out or trying to discourage customers. But it's hard to believe a town or city would dedicate a resource to showing up in the lot whenever a customer leaves. I'm sure they could find a cheaper way to close it down if they wanted to.
