i think he had fun .
I'd be pissed, cause i wouldn't have had anything to cut them with. Also, I ALWAYS locked my bike like that (ofcourse only if there was space). I hated seeing other people push on bikes, or even sit on them using the wheel to support it.... I figured locking the frame next to the rack was the only way to prevent bent wheels.

With that said. Anywhere I lock up, any lock would probably work. It's the hassle (to the theif) of it being locked, and not simply grab and ride... not really how strong the lock is.
