Is it me or is there something ridiculously archaic about robbing a masked society ball, stuffing the loot into oversized bags that really need to have the word 'swag' written on them? It reminds me somewhat of the Dennis Moore sketches in Monty Python's Flying Circus. (Skip to 5:50 for the exact scene, but the entire sketch is a blast)
