You've made it into my local newspaper as well. Congratulations.


Up untill i heard you were actually punished, i was thinking of doing this prank myself. I was almost entirely certain there was no way you cold be fined or banned or suspended... completely unfair man.

I still want to do it, just to see what'll happen. :D
 
I suppose after all those years in the US I am still not getting the culture at all. To me something like this seems infantile and pointless. How old are you, twelve?

I understand that people in the US find this funny and fantastic, so I suppose it's a cultural thing -- good reminder of how different people are in their view of what's funny and what isn't.

Well apparently some people in the US didn't find it very funny.

You're right, we should all be running around like benny hill :D:D:D









Just a joke, mate, don't take it too harshly!
 
So this weekend was the first inter city rival game, first ever. I wanted to be remembered, so I pulled a nice prank that I got from the Yale geniuses, and to my surprise...it worked. It wasn't anything terrible, just some fun...but I guess a lot of parents are EXTREMELY angry.

What I did was tell everyone that the sign would say GO DARBY, but it said WE SUCK

Dude, you're the reason I'm finally joining this forum! I was just reading around this yesterday and i couldn't believe you were part of this thing cause I go to the same high school as you! LOL but its just hard to believe how much national coverage this has gotten. I'm a Cross Country runner and a team from Indiana at our meet yesterday were talking about the 2 schools and the prank. BTW we beat most of the teams there including Darby! lol:)
 
kgchar, all I can tell you is that when I was in high school, I was put in In School Suspension for just skipping class and hanging out at a buddy's house all day. It was only for 3 days or so I think. The extra curricular activities ban is kind of lame, but do you care? Are you in any anyway? I say start smoking pot (if you don't already) and blame them for your "bad" ways.

Seriously though, if it was me, and I didn't care about the extra curricular stuff, then I'd just take it and laugh it off. Enjoy the 15 minutes of fame.
 
Haha wow, that was great.. I think it's funny that you're getting so much attention from this. Although, I don't think you should be punished, the prank didn't harm anybody, and hell, ISS was always better than being in class anyways I thought.
