Beach theft in Hungary

I know what you're thinking - how does a landlocked country like Hungary even have a beach? Well, the answer is, they don't... anymore. Someone stole it.

The country formed its own beach on the side of a river, but it has now been stolen - beach huts, playgrounds, sand and all. Read the press release HERE.

This, of course, makes you wonder a few things:
1) How do you go about stealing six thousand tonnes of sand (plus buildings and playgrounds)? Multiple trips? Get your friends to help? Sneak the sand out little by little in your shoes?
2) How do you do it without anyone noticing?
3) How do you come up with such an idea, anyway?
4) How can I get what they were drinking?
