NYC socialist mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani and a pal stole a table while an undergraduate at Bowdoin College in Maine β only admitting to the heist in the campus newspaper after security had him dead to rights. "I would occasionally use the table in my room. You know, for that game with the red Solo cups and a few ping-pong balls," the future defund-the-police Queens assemblyman recalled in a Sept. 16, 2011 column for The Bowdoin Orient, titled "Idiots Steal Table." "Not a drinking game though, because that would be against the rules, so we play with water. Just as much fun with twice the hydration." And the "crime" was premeditated β Mamdani admitted to eyeing the piece since he was a freshman the year before, he wrote.
