According to Twitter, he met up with a fan in an elevator, and when the guy asked for an autograph he used his iPad to lean up against, which the fan accidentally walked off with.
Hope Gavin gets his iPad back soon! But what a story for the fan!
And that, boys and girls, is what we call a "slow news day."
The actual tweets:

Is it completely wrong of me to hope beyond hope that there was a sex tape on that ipad? I know, I'm going to hell....

Poor naive Gavin. Thinking a fan wanted his autograph when they really wanted his ipad.
Nobody asked for your opinion on this, Asshole.

Ideally with Jonathan Groff and/or Andrew Rennells?

In related news, Wil Wheaton has reported that his Kindle was found by someone else when left his plane without it, and is buying books and games on it.
Now we know why Gavin had to take the Book of Mormon tour, he needed to pay for a new iPad.

I heard he blames Sheldon Cooper.
How can these celebrities be so careless with these expensive gadgets?!!
Oh, that's right, they can easily afford another one....
BIG
HAIR made him a millionaire.
What will happen if the guy who stole Gavin's iPad logs on to Gavin's Grindr?
Why was he signing a playbill? What show was he doing or was the fan just a creeper and always carries his HAIR playbill around.
Wait. Some of you really believe the fan "accidentally" walked off with an iPad???

A interesting point everyone seems to have missed is that, if Creel were using the iPad as a table, that means he was holding it. Which also means that HE handed it over to the fan along with the autograph.
So, in essence, he made a gift of his iPad to his admirer. And now wants it back (buyer's remorse?).
Why does he want this person to contact someone at PFLAG to return it?
It happened at a PFLAG event, but yeah, I'm not sure why, if this fan is on twitter, he wouldn't just want to cut out the middle man.
I'm not trying to be a dick, honestly, but an ipad is a substantial size. If I asked a celeb to sign a Playbil and they handed me an ipad, I'd be aware of that and hand it back. Likewise, if I handed someone my ipad, I'd like to think I'd notice immediately. This is just so odd.
I don't think Gavin will see that ipad again. If someone bothered to hunt him down to sign a Playbill at an event, they probably have defiled that ipad 20 times over by now.
Oh and if the lucky owner of the ipad happens to post on here, please PM if there is adult content on the device.

themysteriousgrowl, a millionaire, really? I know he made a lot of money off of hair but that sounds like an exaggeration to me?
and they were at a PFLAG gala, maybe that's the program the fan asked him to sign?

He still hasn't found it? If it's with a network, he could probably search its location online.
This is as thrilling as when Marty Thomas sued someone for saying he had the crabs? How did that turn out?
