not a star party one but...
I was at home cleaning my primary mirror (for the first time ever). i had teh rear cell off and the tube laying on the ground. cant fall far fromthere can it? i went into the kitchen and washed the primary and turned around to see 2 eyes staring at me from behind the secondary holder! my cat had decided to use the tube as a cubby. I couldnt get him to back out and ... well i dont know why buy i started to panic a bit...
to this day i can still look down the tube and see faint claw marks where i tipped him out
