What kind of bullshit did your school pull?

Our school had a long history of treating us like kindergarteners but this one really was the straw that broke the camel's back. They planned the senior prank. /u/Littlesmall's was pretty asinine but imagine if his school didn't hide their endorsement and set it up for the afternoon. It was slip 'n slide on the front lawn. That was our senior prank. What a fucking joke. What are we 5? Well the student government clique sure were since they were the only ones to go to it. The rest of my grade fucking had enough of it. Four years of this administration making us feel like retards. We had it. About 6 groups of friends were so pissed they plotted their own pranks. They didn't coordinate together so the school wasn't able to stop them all or rat the others out. Only one group was caught in time and they were just going to try to lure the deer that infested the woods into the school.

I was probably one of the angriest at the school but I knew better than to get my hands dirty and get a police record after I stopped being a minor and was on my way to college. I chose a less direct, littlefinger-esque approach. I gave tips and logistical assistance to a few of the groups.

  • Group 1: I hooked them up with a place to get packs of like 150 ping pong balls for $6 each. They got about 2000 and put them in the office and surrounding hallways.

  • Group 2: They wanted to spread something alive and infestation-y in the school. Dude came to me since he knew I know things about animals. I told him to go on Amazon and look for 1000 crickets. They're $23 a 1000 so they got 2000. Started releasing them into vents and class rooms "subtly" over the course of a week. I quote subtly since I didn't monitor this. I just told them how to do it and expected them to fuck it up. To their credit they didn't though.

  • Group 3. I'm most friendly with these guys but I didn't tell them to do anything really. Based on their pot smoking, graffiti painting ways I assumed enough and threw my friend $30 like a small campaign contribution. They egged and spray painted all the windows and wrote things like "Fuc d Poleec" and "Nice try *PD". I guess they ran into the Police but got away. I haven't asked though. Might just be a jeer.

  • Group 4 put butter, milk and cheese in the vents. This also likely gave the bugs a food source and aided their propagation. Not sure if Crickets can't eat them.

  • Group 5 spread bait around the school grounds that hunters use to draw in deer. (My town has a bit of a deer infestation. Thats what happens when you drive out their natural predators). I didn't know this was happening. I only found out it happened a couple months after graduation when they got caught. Was kind of shitty when you consider we're already aware of deer being around. Short of putting them in the school (see Group 6 attempt) it wouldn't really draw attention.

  • Group 6 read above.

I also liked knowing this stuff was going down ahead of time. Made me feel like one of those CIA agents who just casually knows everything before it happens. Really though I just knew the right people to get tidbits of info.
