    When a new adventurer came into town they would touch everything. They turned over rocks, played with the bucket at the well, kicked piles of dirt around and especially poked around the vendors wares looking for some rare combination of magical properties.

    What made it worse was that if the tourist did happen to find something under a rock that a child had forgotten about after it had broken... they came straight to the vendors and complained that they were not being offered enough for the treasure they had found.

    It generally just irritated everyone. It had become so bad that many of the vendors and local townspeople had closed their shops and left only the very few that you can see today when you visit. Something had to be done.

    One after noon, the local children were playing by the stream and had caught several frogs. One of the kids found a rather odd looking frog and decided to take it home to be his pet. As he came through the middle of the town the slippery frog escaped and began hopping around the town.

    Before the youngster could catch it one of the tourist had scooped it up and was kissing it! The little one was shocked and screamed for his father, "Hey that guy is kissing my frog!" Of course everyone in the town square was surprised at the absurdity and many rolled on the ground laughing at the fool.

    From that day on they kept Binkles the frog in the town square on a small red pillow and when a new adventure arrived and inevitably found the frog and kissed it everyone enjoyed laughing at them. Best of all the embarrassment kept most of the adventures from poking around much. At least while they were in town. They still complained about the prices of the useless trinkets they brought for sale though.

    I hope nobody thought about this one yet. I've not looked at the other submissions so far.
