A seemingly innocuous This Bike is a Pipe Bomb sticker was enough to put Ohio University on high alert this morning.
Apparently, the sticker, placed - appropriately enough - on a bike, was sufficient to get both campus police and the bomb squad involved. According to local media, university police found a nondescript mountain bike with the Plan-It X act's sticker on it, and took it literally.
The school closed four buildings, police blocked streets around the Oasis restaurant, the fire department brought in off-duty firefighters, and the Columbus fire department's bomb squad was called in. The bomb experts attacked the bike with a high-pressure spray of water, then pried it open with a hydraulic tool and found no bomb inside.
As for the band, they most recently released Three Way Tie For A Fifth on Plan-It X and No Idea Records.
