The organized an effort to regularly feed coins into the meters so that other residents and visitors could avoid having an expensive ticket slapped on their windshield. Instead, they receive a card telling them that Robin Hood and the Merry Men have ‘saved you from the king’s tariff.’ As a reward for their generosity, the city is suing the Robin Hooders for civil conspiracy to interfere with a contract.
