Ahh stealing someones saddle is a crappy thing to do. That happened to me back in high school - and the kid who did it was laughing at me and the fact I would have to ride home without a seat. The kid was part of a group that the school was reluctant to punish (another story for another day) and he was never reprimanded for taking the seat.
What annoyed me more was that after I forked out money for a new stem and saddle, he returned to my bike whilst I was in class and put the stolen post/saddle back in the downtube.
I wish I had the guts to punch someone back in those days. On second thoughts, I am glad I am out of school, out of that age bracket, and am no longer surrounded by these types of people.
