All of the seniors then proceed to rush out onto the front lawn and have a massive mock medieval brawl. I later learned that in addition the guys in one of the design classes had constructed a functioning catapult which they dragged out and used to fling cardboard projectiles into the crowd. A lot of the people in my class thought it was stupid but hey no one got hurt, and the seniors had a blast.
Just a note for the community, the swords and armor were made out of cardboard. Not in any way harmful.

And I saw videos of that, it was a really good senior prank. Everyone had fun, and I don't believe that the administration really cared...

Re: Senior Prank?

We did a series of pranks. We built Snowmen inside the school, and many other small ones.
One of my personal favorites was buying a community park benh for ths school. These are the kinds that they engrave the donors names on them. Our bench was sponsored by John Galt. It was fantastic when we were walking by it one day, and someone looked over and asked there husband, "Who is John Galt?".

Most of my other pranks were saved for the dorms in college.

Some friends and I help out with an antique tractor show. We pull a prank every year on a friend of ours. One of the best was wiring in a spare truck horn to his brake lights. Quick, simple, irritating, and quite humorus. If possible buy the same horn that the vehicle has for extra confusion.

Re: Senior Prank?

Depending on the type of lockers the school has, during class get a couple students to go around and ziptie a large amount of lockers shut while "going to the bathroom", between classes there will be quite the frustration as students cannot get their stuff for the next class. It only causes minor problems and delay in school, but it would be nice to watch.

If done right, students could only get to their stuff if everyone opened their lockers at the same time. This could be an interesting experiment in cooperation....

Re: Senior Prank?

Well my class did theirs today. Took 4 classrooms and moved everything in the room somewhere outdoors (busloop, courtyard, etc) and made a "virtual classroom" outside. It was pretty funny when all the teachers and underclassmen had to go to school outside.

Re: Senior Prank?

We did ours last night we strung up the whole school with rope, string,yarn,fishing line, duck tape, toilet paper, ect... it was epic! It got so bad that it took 15 minutes minimum to get from the first floor to the third floor, beacuase you would keep getting tangled in it all. It was very satisfying.

Re: Senior Prank?

Wohoo, digging up an old thread.

Yesterday was our senior spirit day. To celebrate, a large group of seniors "tailgated" in the parking lot starting at 5am, complete with griddles in the backs of student cars, and food. They even had a bounce house! The only thing that the police asked of them was to move their cars out of the circle that they had been parked in, for safety reasons.
GOOD SENIOR "PRANK".

A few minutes before the start of first period, three seniors let 18 chickens loose in the hallways. It created a little chaos, but it wasn't exactly a huge problem, since the teachers, administrators, and custodians did a great job of keeping it under control. It was all fun and games, until things started happening. Two of the chickens got kicked to death. One jumped into the toilet out of fear and confusion, and drowned.
The administration reviewed the security tapes to find out who had released the chickens. The three seniors were caught, and were suspended, banned from fall sports, and I believe that there were a few other punishments. I heard rumors that they went to jail, but I haven't heard official confirmation of it.
BAD SENIOR PRANK.

Please, when it's your senior class's turn to have their glory, please act responsibly.

Re: Senior Prank?

Chaining a full toilet to your principal's parking spot is fun. That's all I gotta say.

Watching them not being able to take the chain off and then realizing they can break the chain- priceless.
