I carry an old clean plastic milk jug, just to prevent this kind of rape.
If this happens again, go over to there pop coolers, and grab the
cheapest 1 gallon drink you can find, pour the contents out, and
you end up with a cheaper temperary gas can. Even milk
is cheaper to pour out here in PA. You got to beat them at
there own game......
