I once brought my kayak into a motel room (blush).

It was in a somewhat rough neighbourhood, and I felt paranoid.
I asked the motel owner if he minded (in fact I asked if I could measure
the room first to see if it would fit).  He looked out the window at the kayak
on my car and said "You mean that boat?"  I said "Uh huh!"  He shrugged
his shoulders and said "ok".  I bet he's had stranger things happen.
Anyway, I could get the kayak into the room, but had to work to get the
door to close - and the bow prevented me from closing the bathroom
door.
