Watched my neighbor drag a large foosball table and dump it in the park next to us. What should I do? Report him, confront him, or do nothing?

Report him anonymously to your city
Pick it up and drop it off on his driveway.when no one is looking..
You should take the rods that hold the little players and do something crafty with them. Like, hang them up and then hang hangers from the rods for your shirts and shit.
Put a sign on it with the owners address stating return to sender
Ethically, yes. Always rat out people who break the law or who are unethical.
Don’t be a snitch
I’m not usually one for ratting, but come on. Why dump your shit at the park of all places? He kind of deserves it for that one.
Challenge him to a game, to the death.
Ask him if he saw the lowlife that dumped it
Leave it on his front porch in the middle of the night
Call the city and report it, they’ll haul it away.
But first, go remove most of the little soccer players. Start leaving them one by one in his yard and on his steps with notes that say “we know what you did,” “shame,” “yellow card,” and maybe “game on, asshole.” Bonus points if he leaves his car unlocked and you can stick one in the backseat so he sees it when he checks his rear view. I could have so much fun with this.
Did he put it somewhere that maybe he thinks someone will pick it up to take home, or was he just dumping it to get rid of it?
Putting something out where it’s visible for someone to salvage is a time-honored tradition.
Of course, dumping things that nobody will want in a public place is also a time-honored jackass move.
“He must shit in bed and kick it out with his feet,”
Report him…
Take it! Foosball is awesome
Has anyone picked it up yet?
mind your own
Ugh I just watched a neighbor teen do this. He chucked some kind of bed frame? Into the park but also down a really steep hill, so the city & volunteer crews have to struggle with getting it back up.
Public Dumping is a code violation in any urban area. Report anonymously, specifically naming said owner.
He will be inquired about it, he’ll deny it, they’ll pick it up and junk it. But he will know what he did was captured, and the City/County/Township will have him by name, on their radar.
Attach a very visible sticker with his name and address stating who’s responsible for dumping it.
Anonymously, of course.
Cool! Fooseball at the park, guys!
Tell him or report him. do not let it slid.
Call the village and tell them someone dumped it.
Play a game
Check google maps to see if its on his property.
Then screen shot and email it anon to the city and they will do the rest from there..
Nothing
Grab you a free foosball table
Sell it on FB marketplace
What a stupid place to dump trash. Surely there’re lots of places without constant public presence.
Well, if you confront him, just make sure to bring a referee whistle—this is clearly a foul play!
Don’t be a narc.
You could write in sharpie…if found please return to …..address..
Create a dummy facebook account and post it on Marketplace as free foosball table, and give his contact info to anyone who responds.
put a sign on it that says ” you can’t get rid of me” make sure it is in a hand writing that he can’t recognize.
reminds me of a story of a guys mother in law who had read the paperback book the “exorcist ” . she claimed it was the most evil book she ever read. so she took it and dumped it in the ocean and walked off. the guy wasn’t a big fan of her and went and bought another copy of the book. a ran it under a running faucet in his mil’s kitchen and placed the soggy book on the nightstand in his mil’s bedroom. when she had gotten back home and went to her room and screamed bloody murder.
needless to say he had enjoyed pulling one over on her.
Print out his name, phone number and address.
Title the page, this table belongs to.
Attach it to the table. When the paper disappears, attach a new one.
Put a sign and donate it to the public community! Then invite him
Get the table for yourself. You get a new game and you take something off the streets that shouldn’t be there.
Pick it up and list it on marketplace you fool.
Depends on your relationship, but honestly, dumping furniture in public spaces isn’t cool. If you feel safe, a calm conversation could work—but if not, reporting it anonymously is totally fair. Parks aren’t landfills.
Call the Police anonymously and let them handle it, but DO NOT tell the Police what you saw.
MYOB
Well it’s a table, get it, clean it, and sell it
Grab it silly, it’s a FREE FOOSBALL TABLE
