Never did any official 'senior pranks' back at my high school, but there was one teacher my friends and I all agreed was the coolest...ever.
He taught a 2-part set of classes that was effectively an applied physics course. He was also the head of the Tech. Theater class/group, which built all the sets, props, ran the sound, the like [for robin hood, they built a waterfall, pond with fish, and a log bridge across the top...badass]. Name was Mr. Collins. His classroom was a little hole in the wall next to the wood shop.
The teacher of the woodshop (Mr. Kimberly) was also in the same caliber of fun/cool teacher...and these two would always joke/prank one another.
Examples:
-Collins' door to his classroom was one of those solid metal deals with the one wire-mesh-glass window. This window was covered in tape save one small hole. Woodshop students or Kimbo would peek in for...whatever reason. He set up a low-powered laser pointing straight at the hole one day; nice little surprise.
-Fog machine. Filled his entire classroom, then everyone walked out with towels around their necks a la a sauna.
-Collins had a sink in his room. Everyone got a mouth full of water (Collins was the only one who started cracking up early though), walked out the door, lined up along a wall in the wood shop, acted like they were unzipping their pants, and you can guess the rest.
-Wrapped my old roommate up entirely in paper towels like a mummy, and he went out hopping through the woodshop.
-Collins shared a wall w/ the Horticulture teacher. His room had a suspended ceiling that went above the wall. Another friend of mine brought in a remote control car one day, and they drove it around above the classes.
-They took a golf cart, 4 very large electrical motors, and 12 marine batteries, and souped up the cart. Damn thing went bloody fast...problem was that on its virgin (and only) run, something shorted/melted, and the damn thing wouldn't stop. It ended up flying down the back road between the parking lot and Collins' classroom/woodshop/autoshop, going to the senior lot, and slamming into the side of someone's car, then setting itself on fire.
-Over a period of a few months which culminated in Collins finally getting sick of the administration at the school and quit, there was a 'war' between the woodshop and Collins' class. One of the items centered on this was 'the planer,' or, as Collins called it, 'the shop equivalent of a hydrogen bomb' due to its noise and Kimbo's tendency to put it right next to Collins' door (which was the farthest side of the woodshop from Kimbo). Many pranks and back-and-forths went on, it was quite hilarious seeing his full write-up of it.
Most all my best high school stories involve Collins somehow or another...always fun stuff.
Senior pranks never were allowed. No school faculty ever announces "Senior pranks will be held the week of the 18th this year, prizes will be awarded to the best one!"Originally Posted by Maguspk
If they were allowed, people wouldn't get in trouble or be forced to sit out of graduation because of them.
My senior prank was close to the marble one, cept we used nickels. Gave the principle a nickel per person in a 536 student class, they had something like a 5 gallon bucket full of nickels.
That's not the good one.
Several years before me, my friend's brother pulled the most amazing prank that I know of.
He moved the entire school 3 feet farther from the road. How you ask? Well about 10 years ago our old school had become to small and they were going to build a new one. As they always do they set up stakes where the border of the building is going to be, he and about 5 other friends measured out and moved all the stakes 3 more feet from the road.
I know you're thinking he probably just said that and there's no way to prove it. Oh contrare, the building plans are a matter of public record if the facility is in public use. I have personally checked the claim, he tells no lie.
