The police appear to be facing an uphill battle in searching for the guys, with the majority of Facebook commenter's more concerned about the possibility one of them spilled a drink.

That is hilarious!  Wonder if that table can do the ton?  Being an Aussie drinking table I would not be surprised.

Only going to the bar, going home is an entirely different story... ;D

When I was a teen a couple of friends of mine nabbed a coffin from the city park that used it as part of a display for Halloween. I had no interior just bare steel inside but the outside looked like the real thing, I have no clue why my 2 friends nabbed it but they did so while they were showing it off to me the next question was what the hell are we going to do with it? My friend had a perfectly good engine out of a yz125 dirtbike so my idea was to make the coffin into a go-kart powered by that 125 engine so we could  tear up and down the neighborhood freaking everyone out with it. I thought it was an awesome idea but my friends whimped out on it. I bet you if I had some Aussie friends back then I could've talked them into it.

Whenever I see something like this it makes me proud to be an Aussie.  ;D

Last year I was in Berlin and saw something similar where they had to pedal their bar table while sitting sideways on bar stools and drinking lots of fantastic German beer. Looked like a lot of fun.

They are trying to catch them..
 Why cant they just leave them alone, only the Mounties always get their man..
 Admit they got away, warn people not to do it.......

........... only the Mounties always get their man..

"Cos they're gay................. (not that there's anything wrong with that) ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Saw these in Nashville when I visited a few weeks ago. A rolling bar that you pedal.  They're everywhere, you can rent them. Me and a friend talked to a group of hot looking young ladies pedaling one downtown. They come with a designated driver to keep things
from getting out of hand. It's a long pedal crank connected via chain to some type of differential that looks to be from
an old truck. Pretty cool.

You guys need to start calling in every public park  picnic table, wheels or not.  Give them an anonymous tip, you think you saw it and give them the location. Good as anything else for them to stay busy with.

Ann Arbor just approved a couple of these for downtown. We're a small city with old, narrow streets. This should be interesting.  :D ;)

That picnic table they're running on must be just a basic prototype,I'd like to see the 'New and improved' version complete w/ adjustable bucket seats,etc.  it would give new meaning to the words "reclined at table"  :D
