Came out this morning to find this vandalism to our front yard! Does anyone have any knowledge about this group? It seems harmless and perhaps a real charity. Did a little research and it seems legit.
I’d love to help out but try not to get burned.

That is very modest. The ruse used to put dozens of flamingos on a lawn. In HS we used to 'borrow' excess highway traffic control pylons/cones from road construction overnight to prank friends.

I may or may not have known who was responsible for placing blinking traffic blockades and a detour sign directing cars into a football coaches driveway 😂

Flocked by a Flock of Seagulls sounds better to me...

We’ve bulk ordered flamingos from those guys before. We put them by the road to draw attention when we open a new parlor.
Eventually they all get stolen so we don’t have to worry about storing them anywhere, funny stuff.

How about a cooler full of cold beer instead of the stupid flamingo and ducks.

Due to tight parking we took the wife's Wrangler to a steakhouse we really like a few weeks ago. Just by chance we ended up parked next to 2 other Wranglers. When we came out after dinner all 3 had been ducked.

So do you eat the pineapple or just display it? 🍍

Flocking is a fund raising tactic that our kids school offers. You can pay to have the senior class go out and do it to someone. I guess it is the new way of toilet papering some ones house. Seems like harmless fun in a world that has become increasingly difficult navigate. :cool:

So what does it (getting flocked) mean?

You are being asked to give money to something?

It's usually something that you can pay to have somebody flocked and the money goes to support whatever cause it's for. In our experience it's mainly school fundraisers
