reminds me of going to see Liverpool play.
Parked the car round the corner from Anfield and this kid, who must have been only 7-8, comes up to me and says "Can I look after yer car mister?"
me: "no, I think it will be ok"
kid:"is it fire proof?"
me:"Here's £5"

Similar experience for me.
Went to Anfield to see Charlton playing them a few years back.
Oik: £5 my man.
Me: Nah, the car will be fine.
Oik: No it wont.
Me: Yeah, I have my rottweiler in the back.
Oik: Is he a firefighter?

I'm upset by the implication that they would torch your car with a doggy inside.
You should have clubbed him to death and fed him to the dog, and left a little sign saying
"Are you REALLY sure I've gone to the game?"
