NYU Robin Hood Gives To The . . . Rich

my friend says she was in Washington Square Park yesterday, and 4 guys calling themselves "Robin Hoods" showed up with $1,000 in 1s, 5s, and 10s, and literally started throwing it into the air. A mini riot ensued in which people were literally punching each other to get the money.
Whoa! Did this happen? If so, we're really pissed that it didn't happen in our neighborhood, where people who actually need free money (namely, us) live. If you're an NYU student who was randomly given enough money to buy a few new pairs of sorely needed American Apparel leggings yesterday, we don't want to hear about it. Well, except we kind of are professionally obligated to want to hear about it. So tell us, and try not to gloat.
Update: In response to the Post's negative coverage of the event, the moderndayrobinhood.com kids are packing up their bags and moving their free-money giveaways to "another country." Thanks, Post!
