In 2008, when going for a gifting run in Montreal, I had tried to put a TB on top of the suspended neon lights at the subway station, but as I sometimes failed to catch the TB falling back from unsuccessful attempts, it would echo in the underground when hitting the tiles on the floor. Not very subtle I know. [Image Can Not Be Found]
After getting off at my destination, I rolled(I had my skateboard) toward the apartment building on top of which the first tower was located. When waiting at the intersection one block before this target, a man randomly advised me to be cautious with myself. This comment was odd because I was in no obvious danger; quite the opposite was true, because even though the street light was red, there was no car coming so I could have crossed the street as it is customary in Quebec when you have the opportunity, but I did not. Maybe this extra cautiousness on my part, which was not an unusual behavior to witness either, especially in this part of town where there are lots of immigrants, clued an extra sensitive man in about a risky activity I might have been undertaking? Did he say this because I was carrying a skateboard? Or was it rather an attempt to intimidate me?
At the next tower in another part of town, just as I was about to dig a hole for my TB between two buildings, a big black painted and expensive looking car stopped beside me and the passenger looked in my direction with his sunglasses at 10:00 PM.
Next I gifted a church in yet another part of town. When coming back to take the subway, I saw I group of youth, among whom a guy with a skateboard. One of them had something small in his hand which he was throwing over the neon lights. Then he seemed to pretend to use it as an energy beam generator by holding it in front of him in his extended moving arm.
After that I went gifting along St-Catherine street, the main commercial avenue in Canada.
Finally, my last targets were close to my apartment: a police station and the death tower beside it.
