So tempting.

I wonder what kind of tools, if any, you're allowed to use.

According to the person I got it from, the promotion was stopped when people started using cutting torches on the steel posts, because taking apart the posts was cheating.

But I don't think they actually had any restrictions apart from that and "must be legal"

I have an idea of what to use, but I could be wrong.... Where is this thing?

Vancouver, corner of Broughton and Pender.

It was only up there for a single morning, I believe. Plus, most of that cash isn't -- only the top rows are real, so the total in there was only like a few thousand, not the million plus it looks like.

Nobody managed to break the glass, but the posts holding the glass up failed even without mechanical tools after a while of kicking at the thing.

I keep thinking "chainsaw."
