best senior prank?

[durtysoufcraka]

i've got a little less than a year to plan out the greatest senior prank my new h/s will have ever seen. i need some input on good pranks you've heard of/done. any help is appreciated.
the class of '78 at my old school dug a hole in the football field and drove a rul old caddie into it w/'78 painted all over it. that is halarious.

and of course there are those pranks that "happened at everyone school" like w/the cow leading it up stairs and it cant get down. or having sheep numbered 1 and 3 and the teachers spent days looking for #2. these have all been heard of but i suppose are worht posting. (except the ones i just mentioned) but plz know they didnt happen at your school...and prolly dint at mine.

my senior quasi-prank

the senior prank at my school wasn't really a prank, it was more like an overnight party at the school parking lot. Some kids of course wanted to go and trash the school, so they went in and hung posters and spray painted the roof and driveways into the school. One girl put up like 30 or forty signs that said "you got served!" but everything else was class of 2004 oriented. The rest of us were outside sleeping, gambling, or listening to the senior rock band play. (and dancing like ) In the morning, we all parked in a maze formation, so that the teachers and parents would have to drive through the baseball field or through the maze to get to the entrance. It was working well, and then a huge 18 wheeler drove into the parking lot, so we had to move our cars to let him in. The side affect was that for about 20 minutes, no one could get into school; everything was blocked up by this guy.

I think it was much more fun than letting animals into the building.

the night janitors got in trouble for letting people get on the roof, though.

Not technically a senior prank but one hell of a night. Or so I heard

The marching band bumped our football team from our first practice under the lights in the stadium. Needless to say this put quite a crease up our shorts. Someone organized about 15 people to perform a ninja attack on the band while they were practicing on OUR field. Things got out of hand and at the organizational meeting (Yes a pre planning mission briefing) over 50 people showed.

The plan was to surround the field with water balloon launchers and fire for effect at a pre-determined signal. The stadium was actually below the level of the parking and the baseball field on the opposite side. The stadium was more a hole in the ground. The only problem was that word got leaked and the band members, parents, other students and teachers were waiting. The assailants stayed their course and proceeded despite the strong defense. Not very many rounds were launched before things went to hell and a handbasket. Water balloons were not the only thing on the menu that night. Apparently rotten tomatos were in season and were launched accordingly. There were eyewitness accounts of disdained teachers being center punched with these things. Those were hand thrown though .

The local sheriff helicopter was soon overhead and red lights were bouncing off the neighborhood buildings. Have you ever seen cockroaches scatter when the light goes on? Or illegals magically find spider holes when "La Migra" rolls into town? Kind of like that. I have it on good information that people dressed in full camo with face paint were seen that night running with cops, parents and ticked off teachers in tow.

Apparently a few of the evil doers were caught that night and several the next school day when they were ratted out by their friends. Can you believe I was actually called into the principal's (spelled principal not principle because he/she is our "pal" ) office because someone thought I was involved? Thankfully I received a head's up about this misdeed that was about to be done to my good name and I called my grandfather who was in the hopsital at the time. He had just had major cancer surgery (God rest his soul) and during the course of our conversation we remembered that I was at the hospital the night of that "horrible" event and therefore my "pal" the principal must have the wrong person. I was called into the office and the severity of that night's events were clearly laid out to me. I was astonished that people could be so cruel to other human beings. I later gave the name of the hospital to my "pal" but she didn't seem too interested. Hey anything to help my soon to be alma mater, right?

So what have we learned to make your planned activity a success?

• Pre-planning is key
• Stay away from illegal activity
• Don't let too many people in on the gig. Loose lips sink ships and thwart covert band raids
• Always have an escape route, or three
• Always have an alibi in case of capture irregardless of when capture occurs
• Disguising your face or distinguishable marks is a good idea. Hence, "I think I saw so and so there but I am not sure."
• Always have a good relationship with your family built on mutual understanding, respect and a good gut buster facilitating a get away.

This story is fiction. Any resemblence to any other aerial assault on band members on the West Coast is purely coincidental

Band geek bashing! I love it!

My friends didn't want to take the risk, but we WERE going to sneak an inflatable Santa onto the roof and have him hold a sign saying "Santa says: SENIORS RULE".

No one was there to hold the ladder...

Because it was done in the late 30's and the statue of limitations has expired...

My grandfather (a different one than above) took the principal's car and hoisted it up on top of the town's train station.

There was also a previous senior class at my school that took apart a miscellaneous VW bug and carried it piece by piece into the small, small, small auditorium and and put it back together on the stage. Gaining entry into a public school building can be tricky at best these days though.

Please proceed with caution

NOTE: DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE END OF THE YEAR. THEY WILL BE WAITING AND WATCHING IN ANTICIPATION

Parted a VW bettle and lifted it up over the roof. Then assembled it in a closed off court yard (no way in heck to get it out).

Edit* just now looked at above post. DOH! but yes it is very funny indeed when they are trying frantically to get the thing out of there!

Another one I know of is find 3 pigs (or other barnyard animal, not pet but animals that you can paint) and paint a 1, 2 and 4 on the animals... takes em a while to find #3.

Not saying this is a good thing to do, in fact it was a real A-Holeish thing to do...but several years ago the seniors from my school got on a major interstate in ATL during rush hour, each got in a lane and drove the entire 45 minute trip down I-85 going about 30/40mph...

That must have screwed alot of people up, dont do stuff like that.

[durtysoufcraka]

one of the best in my school history was the senior for the day made a detour of the local highway (2 lane, but still a hwy) through the campus and collected a toll. delayed so many ppl and made a fair amount of $. now that is funny.

You are bringing back memories long, long forgotten. Ping Pong balls?

It is something to see trashbags full of ping pong balls cascading down from the second story of the lunchroom!

[matmc89]

no, the bouncy balls from the machines except were taking donations now and ordering them in bulk. Not sure where to drop them though, maybe everywhere..

My plan is to rent the portable snowmakers (the ones on the back of trucks) and build huge jumps and a halfpipe. It probably won't happen, but it's still an awesome idea.
