Shark attack in San Diego

Given that I'm covering Comic Con for the rest of the week-- you can catch up on all that madness here-- there may not be much action here for the next few days. But I figured none of you would object if this became a repository for all the bizarre photo ops that tend to happen at Comic Con. So behold, what happened when I attended a party and press event for Shark Night 3D, and got a little too close and personal with a shark. There was also a mechanical shark-- yes, like a mechanical bull, that you ride-- but I wasn't really dressed appropriately for riding it without flashing the entire crowd, so this was the only photo op I came back with.
