Guerilla Marketing bomb scare

As you may know, there was a massive bomb scare in Boston today. It turned out to be an elaborate hoax perpetrated by Turner Broadcasting as a guerrilla marketing campaign for their show on the Cartoon Network named Adult Swim. Someone’s got some questions to answer.
According to CNN [1], Portland is on the list:
Turner said the devices had been in place for two to three weeks in Boston; New York; Los Angeles, California; Chicago, Illinois; Atlanta, Georgia; Seattle, Washington; Portland, Oregon; Austin, Texas; San Francisco, California; and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
So, all you readers, I want to know where these items are before they are taken down. Anyone? I’ll head out and take photos.

I was wondering if I should call this Gorilla marketing since today is indeed Gorilla Suit wearing day [3].
