Kinda lol'ing about them not "letting" you keep it. What are they going to do, call the police? Gotta love arbitrary authority. Last year at the Roundup when we were leaving there was a girl involved in a big argument at the gate with some piss-ant telling her she couldn't take her $4 bottle of water off the grounds.(I suppose for some draconian Austin recycling nonsense) They just sat there arguing with each other until I finally turned around and told her "Just take it, what is he going to do about it?"

Don't worry about what you can't change.
Do the best you can with what you have.
Be honest, even if it hurts.
