This is the way I see it:
1st time: Either; A-Personal (some A-hole that's got a grudge)
B-Frat Prank (close proximity to CSULB and at least 3 Frat Houses
C-Random (either someone with an affinity for tikis or a gardener with an affinity for Futbol!)

2nd time: A-Eliminates the "Random" aspect. Also there where lighter and easier-to-manage tikis available.
B-Chances of a Frat targetting the same house is almost nil (according to my sources)
C-The Personal aspect makes the most sense as our lives are not that private and the "No-Life A-holes" would know when the best time to take something personal would be.

Now, stealing something out of someone's front yard, as low as it is, would generally be a crime of convenience. Therefore, other lighter, smaller items would have been the main target. To steal a 5 foot tiki that weighs in excess of 100 lbs would require planning. To take it right off the front porch and out to the street and into a pickup bed, well that takes a motivation.

To those who feel so motivated, I say you ARE scumbags! Bring it to my face and stop hiding behind petty crimes! I look forward to your "come-uppance"!
