Yes: it was surprisingly easy (well, I can be a sneaky bastard too). I had him hidden under a coat - he stayed perfectly still from before security, into the park and for about an hour inside the park. I kept him well hidden while inside the park. I gave Susan the jacket (well, she was cold) when I got on the one-rail. I tried to be low-key about it, but a couple of people saw him and wanted to check him out. More than one CM saw him, but no-one said anything (I think a couple were trying to figure out if he was real - he can hold very still when he wants to).

He was also a hit over at the Suite. A female friend of Steve's (whose name escapes me at the moment) held him a good part of the time I spent there. When I got home that night, he did not want to go back in his cage - he LOVED the attention all night!

I'm glad Tori finally relented and petted him - she was the whole reason we brought him down that night!

Tori thought he was pretty cool- but he's probably the first lizard she's seen outside of a pet shop, and she was nervous about petting him. She thinks maybe we need to get one now.

Thanks for bringing him- he's a cutie!

(I can't believe you were able to sneak him in- way to go!
