That's exactly what happened to me - well almost. I was on the first flight of a used Hughes 269B. Although I started off with plenty of fuel for the intended destination, I had to divert and land because of a bad thunderstorm. When I arrived about 3000 ft. short of the hangar at the destination airport the low fuel light came on at approximately 200 ft. agl. It was a pretty scary feeling. I decided to put it down on the grass and walk the rest of the way. I often wondered if I should have hover taxied to the hangar but after reading your post I feel vindicated. Better safe than sorry.
