"About a week ago, a family traveled to OKC for a visit. Upon arrival at WRWA, their little one accidentally left behind her best friend Scale the Dragon," the riveting Facebook post began. "The family realized Scale was missing once they had left Will Rogers Airport. Mom called and was able to get ahold of an airport employee who was successful in tracking down Scale. To our surprise, Scale was touring the airport and met some friendly airport staff in his adventures."
Scale was taken to different parts of the massive airport, including a parking lot bench, an Airport Express shuttle window, vending machine, a Southwest Airlines wheelchair and decorated ticket counter.

The dragon also got to see the airport’s Native Son statue and was posed alongside two officers, which the Facebook page captioned in Scale’s voice as: "These nice police department employees took me out for some fresh air and sunshine and to see all the beautiful flowers."
Scale’s adventure concluded with a photo of the dragon sitting atop of an administrative office desk with a Will Rogers World Airport pin and other branded souvenirs. In this photo caption, employees "Eric and Dan" were credited with rescuing Scale.
