This made the morning news in Tokyo. Apparently some pranksters at the University of Tokyo (Todai) went on a bit of a saddle swiping spree and left a free gift of broccoli for their victims. This happened last month without much issue, but a second round this month had the police involved and pressing charges. The saddles were recovered, by the way.
These events seem to have inspired a bit of a trend.
this appears to be chikuwa, a kind of fish cake that is very yummy

ya, total bummer for anyone who needed to get somewhere in a rush, but the saddles were just dumped nearby in a box..the owners did eventually get them back. I think the funniest part is that this made the morning news.
