The gnome on the airport luggage carousel finally won me over

Three years ago I would have laughed at anyone taking pictures of garden gnomes. Then last month I was picking up my bag at LAX and sitting right there on carousel 4 was a little red cap gnome with a sign that said 'lost luggage.' Some guy grabbed it and walked off like it was normal. Been keeping my eyes peeled ever since. Anyone else spot a gnome somewhere totally random like that?

Wait, has anyone ever seen a gnome just sitting on a random park bench miles from any garden? I was hiking in the Smokies two summers ago and there was a little gnome with a fishing pole sitting by a creek. No sign, no note, just sitting there. My buddy tried to take it but I told him no way, that thing was clearly on a mission or something. It had this little red hat with a tiny feather sticking out. Honestly it looked happier than half the tourists dragging their kids around.
