Bingo was stolen by four Princeton undergrads dressed as Yale cheerleaders. They took Bingo to a friend's apartment in New York City on the run from authorities. The mastermind behind the canine-caper was Mark Hallam '79. The group of students took Bingo back to her owner and held a press conference for her return.
