Prank Gone Wrong

When a senior prank goes bad for the wrong reasons … What really happened? Well, some of us will never really know, except for each individual who had a role in the prank that night. Not even video footage can shed enough light, as there is a “mask” of betrayal and deception running so deep that it is “udderly” ridiculous.

Senior pranks have been around for decades, so is it worth all the hype? Maybe ask the kids who get in trouble vs. the kids who were ultimately responsible for the cruelty but let their friends suffer the consequences. Who needs friends like that? Unfortunately, we will be trying to figure this out until the “cows” come home.

The bottom line, never trust your adviser. He or she is bound to “steer” you in the wrong direction, and responsibility ultimately falls on the students alone.
