Afraid that this is not a new phenomena.  In 1976(7?), a local Portland, OR
Ronald McDonald statue was kidnapped by anonymous Reed College students and
set up outside the student union (while I was not there (honest, officer!),
I've seen the picture in old student handbooks).  The reason for the joke
was that the new head of college food services was named... Ron McDonald.
Food quality seemed to begin a downward spiral after this incident...
