Could you picture if you were pulling into that garage while they were filming?

Re: Need a good laugh?

It's funny, wandering around a parking garage yesterday trying to find my car (it was parked by a friend earlier in the day and the coordinates he gave me proved to be incorrect) I kept thinking back to the struggles in the video, well, their strength in the face of the good fight kept me going. After I topped out (mine was an assult via the West staircase) I didn't retrace my route on descent, rather I charted a new route through the interior of the garage and found my faithful vehicle waiting for me. In fact, when I pressed my emergency key-fob device the vehicle signaled me (blowing its horn AND flashing its lights) - we completed the descent together, paid for our permit (unlike Everest, you only pay for the time you spend in the Garage) and departed for home.
When we reached Base camp (a WAWA convenience store) my vehicle found refreshment in 15 gallons of 87 octane and I in a 24 oz. cup of coffee ...... it was a grand adventure!
