Was anyone else thinking about running off with a segway?

I may be speaking entirely for myself, but in Florida did anyone else think about sneaking into Einstein somehow and running off with a Segway that was on the side? I think the thought crossed my mind like 6 times that weekend...

i had thought of jumping up on stage and taking one for a spin:D but i would not actually take it because that wouldn't be in the spirit of FIRST;)

I'll wait until I can afford one

They require a key and are reported to be almost impossible to hot wire. Plus you would be soo easy to catch. It's not like there are thousands of them out there.

i know they need a key...thats why when i was riding one i kept going progressivly faster and wanted just to run off...but then i hit 7 and it slowed down because it was programed so we can't steal it : (

I know I know, but for like 45 seconds before I was attacked by either my conscience or security, it would be fun :)
