Yep, students + cones + statues = sights such as this ...
Lady Godiva, in Coventry is another that was often similarly "adorned".

Tale from my days in Aberystwyth; many, many years ago.

The road from the town centre to the main campus / National Library Wales had road works inflicted on it for some months, which caused a certain amount of traffic chaos and delays. Almost at the end of one term, probably over one night of partying to celebrate the end of exams, a significant proportion of the cones were moved. A lot ended up in the trench, others on sign supports and quite a few went missing. That resulted in wide spread searches of student accommodation, even the smaller campus at Llanbadarn was not ignored - us post-grads were mildly amused, until we were also invaded.
The time lag meant a few unlocked lecturers offices and seminar rooms on the main campus acquired extra items.
This was before widespread CCTV so most involved were not traced.
If I recall correctly, most of the cones were returned (eventually).

I think the cones ended up on the heads of statues in Scotland. LOL

Admirable sur fond neutre ******

It's one way of putting an opinion forward, and this is a good one!
