What kind of world we live in when someone steals "The Hulk"?:crazy:

I'd check on E-Bay if I was the theater. That or some sorority house.

Um, I had a Yoda in my GA classroom that was, I assume, "liberated" from a theatre at some point.
My husband's favorite English teacher in high school had a life size Hulk Hogan that she "liberated." (She was a SERIOUS wrestling fan!)
The hulk? I wouldn't throw him out of my classroom if he appeared!

I dated a guy that talked about how as a college kid, him and his friends would pull pranks like this... "stealing" advert props from theaters. Heck, 2 people from my senior high class "kidnapped" a Burger King "Herb" cutout from a BK and put him on display in the school's commons. LE came and picked "Herb" up... thankfully LE saw it for what it was: just a harmless prank.

LOL! We have Black Spidey - theatre size - hanging in my sons window, just to scare off the bad guys. It was a gift from a friend who delivered for AMC theatres.

As for pranks, we used to steal the "bell" from Taco Bell... decades ago.
