I'm famous!!!!!! So far I have been told i was quoted in a chicago newspaper and the LA times because of this. Yes, I work at Total now and I wasn't there the day he stole the shark (thankfully) but I did talk to him for almost an hour the night before. We spoke at length about how he recognized me from another store and how amazing that shark would look in his 260gal tank. I've seen him a lot in stores over the years and so has everyone else at Parrots. Anyway, he came back the next day and spent another 45 mins talking to employees before he grabbed the shark when everyone was occupied and walked out with it in his jacket. Even on the video we have nothing looked out of the ordinary other than how he was holding his jacket when he walked out. We all assumed he had a bucket in the car but in his infinite genius he admitted to just driving home with it.... The funniest part was when the guy from channel 11 called us "pet detectives" I lost it but was off camera. Too funny.
Also, that guy from the post totally misquoted me and made it sound like I was there and watched him walk out.
