I once let a neighborhood kid sit im my glider while I was working on it

A friend took his DG300 to the local mall for display. An 8 year old
went over to the down wingtip and walked the wing up to the fuselage.

There's a message there - don't put a wingtip down, use two wing
stands to keep the wings level if you're going to show a glider in
public crowds. It looks better that way anyway. Take along someone
for crowd control if you can.
