[quote]TASMANIAN Police are scrambling to crack the case of Hobart's great inflatable Easter egg heist.
The five-metre high egg, which was full of air instead of chocolate, went missing from the roof of Coles Supermarket in Sandy Bay less than 24 hours after it was installed on Saturday as part of the store's Easter campaign, The Mercury reports.
The last person to see the egg in its rightful marketing position was a customer who left the store at 6pm on Sunday.
Why someone would want to steal a five-metre inflatable egg is the question which is perplexing Coles Sandy Bay store manager John Robb.[/quote]

This story deflates my hopes for Tasmania.
The title is a pun in itself.
Sadly, I'm not good at making news puns.

Why would someone [i]not[/i] want to steal a five-meter inflatable egg?
i guess he....couldn't stand the sight of a big [i][b]chocolate egg[/b][/i]
:australia:
Wonder if the police will make an [I]egg-zample[/I] of the crook?
Well I guess you could say the cops will have a hard time [I]cracking the shell[/I] of this case.
This just in. Inflatable eggs are now banned in Australia.
It's funny because once in the Commonwealth games they forgot to include Tasmania.
Shows how much we care about the little "state".

Half the country refers to them as inbreds as well.

Maybe because they are?
The thief's plan went [I]eggcellently[/I], now I'll just sit back and laugh at all the [I]yolks[/I] people make in this thread.
Did i make you cringe?
Why would you steal an egg? its not even chocolate filled.
[B]Breaking News[/B]
"Let's get [I]cracking[/I] down now, Boys!"
News like this makes my blood [I]boil[/I].
[i]Looks like a 5 meter high egg got stolen[/i]
This is the worst thread I've ever seen.
Also, I would totally have stolen that egg.
Whoever stole that egg is a gigantic [i]Air[/i]head
[b]Edit:[/b]
HURR
This might seem funny if you just look at the sunny side of things, but it's the taxpayers that have to shell out the money to have the police scrambled for this decoration poacher.
When the Police heard that the egg was missing they scrambled out of the headquarters faster than you can say "poached"
If I were the owner of that egg I'd be hard boiled in frustration at this moment.
Enough of these yolks.

Wasant chocolate moron. It was clearly a air egg
It's an inflatable egg. They really care about getting it back?

You mean you spent your time wondering and having hopes about Tasmania?
Damn, dude, that's bad.
(It's also an awful pun.)
Its going to take the cops a long time to [I]crack[/I] this case

I'm klepto about stealing random things like that
It's not made of gold, it's only an egg. I don't see what the big deal is.
