The agents were at a skateboard and apparel shop near the Rice-Eccles Stadium, where the closing ceremony was held Sunday night. According to the store owner, the agents left the document titled "site post assignment log," the newspaper reported. The Salt Lake Tribune reported the story Monday after seeing the document. ... When Greenhalgh called to report the mistake, a Secret Service representative promised that an agent would pick up the log, the Tribune reported. After 45 minutes, no one had arrived, so he offered to take it to the agency's downtown office. In exchange, Greenhalgh requested an autographed picture of Cheney, but was rebuffed and then decided to contact the newspaper, the Tribune said.
