Some students at Spring Hill High School are having to pay up following a senior prank that got out of hand.
“My daughter was there on Thursday to do approved activities for the senior prank,” Devan Allen explained.
Allen’s daughter was one of around 100 students at an approved senior prank day, according to Maury County Sheriff Bucky Rowland, who said school officials let students inside the building Thursday night.

Shoulda stuck to panty raids.
ReplyDeleteHere's a thought...stop the prank day.
ReplyDeleteMy class's senior prank was pushing a VW Bug into the skool cafeteria and having a senior skip day. The car's owner still has it and showed up at our 50th reunion with it.
ReplyDeleteOur HS was built in three phases, 1919, 1950s and early 70s. From the top of the "new" section everything rolled down to the hallway in front of office. We gathered up some 5000 golf balls and let 'em roll! Very noisy and watching students dodge massive waves was a hoot! Senior class cleaned them all up eventually. Stupid fun.
ReplyDeleteCouple of guys in my class had a grandfather who had a small farm. They showed up with 4 greased piglets. Took forever to catch them.
ReplyDeleteAnother guy rode his bike into the main corridor, did a burnout, spun a donut and did another burnout heading back out. I heard he spent a good chunk of his summer replacing the linoleum tiles
I grew up in Miami and one of the unofficial senior pranks involved the Seaquarium, more specifically, the advertisement for the Seaquarium.
ReplyDeleteThe Seaquarium is located on the Biscayne Bay Causeway and the advertisement was at the entrance of the causeway; a larger than life-sized replica of a great white shark that rotated on a suspended platform and was illuminated at night. It was very realistic. (I’m sure you know where I’m going with this).
The challenge for seniors was to secure a mannequin’s body into the shark’s mouth and make it look realistic - the bigger the mannequin the better. That shark “devoured” who knows how many dummies, some of which were decorated with red paint while the more courageous students decorated their artistic statements in school colors. The tricky part was not balancing on a rotating platform, but avoiding the cops while doing so.
The tradition was upheld for decades until recently when they retired the shark and replaced it with - - - dolphins.
Well, fuck-a-doodle-do! What kind of statement does that make?
So long, farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, goodbye to a Miami tradition.
For a while, until they get the idea to have a cowboy mannequin riding the dolphin.
