There were no spots available in either lot on opposite sides of the restaurant, and I'm told parallel parkers filled up the street on both sides as well. He would've had to park in an empty lot about half a block away and he's paranoid about leaving his car far away unattended like that.
I mean he would've done it if he had to, but he'd understandably rather wait for a spot nearby to free up.
