"Stolen"?

Seriously, how the fuck does one go about "stealing" a 3-ton meteorite? How exactly did they slip that one by the guards?

"Heyyyyyyy...wait a minute...are you stealing the meteorite?"

"What? This? Oh...no...no no no. This...this is an old couch. A really, big, old couch. Shaped like a rock. And covered in a tarp. For some reason."

Also, shouldn't it be a "meteor" at that point?
