"Once upon a time, long long ago, there was a little blue gopher. Our
little blue friend wanted to go on an adventure, but he wasn't sure
where to go. Will you go on an adventure with him?",
"One of his friends once recommended going to New York to make friends
at this mysterious thing called \"GothamGo\". It is supposed to be a
big event with free swag and if there is one thing gophers love it is
free trinkets. Unfortunately, the gopher once heard a campfire story
about some bad fellas named the Sticky Bandits who also live in New
York. In the stories these guys would rob toy stores and terrorize
young boys, and it sounded pretty scary.",
"On the other hand, he has always heard great things about
Denver. Great ski slopes, a bad hockey team with cheap tickets, and he
even heard they have a conference exclusively for gophers like
himself. Maybe Denver would be a safer place to visit."

attempt to hail a cab. Unfortunately nobody wants to give a ride to
someone with a \"pet\". They kept saying something about shedding, as
if gophers shed.",
"Unwilling to accept defeat, you pull out your phone and request a ride
using <undisclosed-app>. In a few short minutes a car pulls up and the
driver helps you load your luggage. He doesn't seem thrilled about
your travel companion but he doesn't say anything.",
"The ride to your hotel is fairly uneventful, with the exception of the
driver droning on and on about how he barely breaks even driving
around the city and how tips are necessary to make a living. After a
while it gets pretty old so you slip in some earbuds and listen to
your music.",
"After arriving at your hotel you check in and walk to the conference
center where GothamGo is being held. The friendly man at the desk
helped you get your badge and you hurry in to take a seat.",
"As you head down the aisle you notice a strange man on stage with a
mask, cape, and poorly drawn abs on his stomach. Next to him is a man
in a... is that a fox outfit? What are these two doing? And what have
you gotten yourself into?"

as Sean Kelly. While waiting in line you decide to do a little
research to see what types of work Sean is into.",

online handle is \"StabbyCutyou\". The stories about New York being
dangerous were true!",
"Without a thought you grab your gopher buddy and head for the
door. \"I'll explain when we get to the hotel\" you tell him.",

seems like a nice enough guy.",

he is desperately looking for a mascot. He even purchased a little
buffalo outfit, but it is too small for him.",
"After looking over the costume you are certain it won't fit you, but
as luck would have it your gopher companion fit in it perfectly. Mark
quickly snapped a few photos, mumbling something about Ashley McNamara
designing the best buffalo costume ever.",

yourself on the last night of your stay."

game. The Avalanche had a rough season last year, but your gopher
buddy is hopeful that they will do better this year. He also explains
that he is tired of hearing about \"Two time Stanley Cup champion Phil
Kessel.\" You suspect that he is still a little salty about the
Penguins beating the San Jose Sharks in the Stanley Cup, but you
decide to give him a break.",
"The next day you head to the slopes and blaze a few trails. You can
definitely see why Denver is called the \"Mile-High City\". Gorgeous
mountain scenery doesn't come close to describing it.",
"You consider checking out this GopherCon you have heard so much about,
but a quick check on their website has your gopher buddy vetoing
it. It turns out he has a strict, \"No Space Walks\" policy, and
refuses to believe that it is just a graphic on the website.",

head home."
