Was there a few months ago and we use a really nice jogging stroller along with my Oakley kitchen sink backpack as a diaper bag. Well we went on pirates and typically I just lock the wheels of the stroller but it can still be moved but would deter anyone from stealing it. Usually we bring the bag with us but this time I left the bag behind. Just took the DSLR bag along with our phones and wallets. Well unfortunately the baby explodes in her diaper on the ride. We rush over to the stroller because it leaked through her diaper when we notice the bag has been removed from the stroller. We ask the guy there watching the strollers and he has no idea what's going on. Baby is crying because she is dirty, we now have no diapers and no change of clothes with us. Everything was in that bag, even the babies bottles. Someone from security comes after I made a scene and they make a report. We have to go all the way back to the main entrance where I explain what happened. They were upset and see how upset the baby was along with us. They give us some diapers along with formula and a change of clothes. One of the girls even helps out my wife while I am speaking with security outside. Security informed the people in the baby center to provide those items to us. Well everything gets straitened up and baby is asleep after eating something when I get a call from security that they found my bag. They meet me in lost and found where I describe the bag. The morons who stole it did not realize it was a $200 bag. They took the diapers along with the wipes, onesies and the powdered formula. The bastards even stole the pacifiers. I was relieved I got the bag back and they apologized again for what happened. So word of advice, just take the bag with you and don't go through what we went through.
Just so you know for the future, there are not CMs assigned to watch strollers. They are there to rearrange them and make sure they stay neat. They have no idea which stroller belongs to who, so someone stealing a bag just looks like someone grabbing a bag out of their own stroller.
