Re. the earlier comment on Steve Martin's movie LA Story, that no-one would
ever get to rollerskate in a museum.
 
Well, I have seen a visitor on rollerblades in the National Museum of American
History.  She got away with this by going in on a crowded summer day and having
her boyfriend pull her by the hand so that if you didn't look down on her feet
you wouldn't really notice that she was on rollerblades except for the fact
that her head didn't bob up and down.  I don't think the guards even noticed!
