Well played, sir, very well played.
And that's the kind of thing it wouldn't be that hard to pull off:
show up with a truck that has "Starport Maintenance" on the side, and
most people would ignore you.

Probably wouldn't need a whole cement mixer truck either : 3 or 4 bags
of Quickcrete and a 5 gallon paint bucket of water over a landing gear
'foot" would suffice.
