HALLOWEEN PRANKS???
« on: November 01, 2008, 03:49:11 PM »
Many years ago before I got remarried I bought a 3 story brick house on So 2nd street in Lou. It was only about 30 ft from the house to the sidewalk, which was a couple of ft below the yard. I wanted to have some fun with the trick or treaters. I drove a stake at the edge of the sidewalk and tied fishing line to it and tied it off just inside a 3rd floor window. I took a hanger and tied a stick on it running accross and draped a sheet over it. Then I weighted the sheet with fishing sinkers and made a goofy looking head for it. I tied another line to it from my fishing pole so I could retrieve it quickly, then hung it on the line and waited. Wasn't long til  about 6 or 7 came along. When they got right in front of the house I let the thing go, It literally flew down that line as I screamed at the top of my lungs. The kids screamed and actually ran into and almost over each other, then they ran right out accross the street, luckily there was no traffic. Scared the crap out of me as I realized that One of those kids could have been killed had there been any cars there. I retreived quickly and took it all down that night. A neighbor lady was arrested for jumping out of the bushes at kids dressed as a witch, that wasn't right at all. One trick as a kid could have ended badly but didn't. Some kids took a roll of TP and laid in on the center line at the beginning of a curve and ran it through a ditch. Car went straight, hit ditch and went airborne into a hay field, nope, wasn't me on that one. Any good tales??? POWDERMAN.  :D :D

I was pretty calm as a kid, 'ole pap kept a pretty tight leash on me, plus I was on the football team so getting caught doing something stupid would have meant some pretty hellish punishment.  I kept on the straight and narrow for the most part. 

The one time I let loose as a teenager was actually my senior prank.  Buddy of mine had a dozen bags of asphalt patch, so we went down to the school parking lot on a day when there wasn't class and put in an extra speed-bump.  Had a pretty good laugh the next day watching people hit it going about 30.   ;D  The kicker about it is that the administration never caught on, about a month later they painted it yellow and it's still there to this day!

KEV. Neat trick. Most of the pranks were done by kids in grade school. Lots of soapy windows, mostly harmless stuff. A hay wagon was taken apart and put back together on top of the post office. The same kids took it back down too. We put a cat in the principals glove compt halloween night. He had a heck of a time figuring out where the racket was coming from. Cat made quite a mess. POWDERMAN.  :D :D

We turned a few outhouses over, or slipped in under the cover of darkness and coated the seats with axle grease.  Another trick was to take all the tires off a tractor and put them on the roof of the barn, or remove the bumpers from their car, or slip into the girls restroom at school and pour turpentine on the toilet paper. 

Can't do these things today..........no more outhouses, tractor tires are too heavy for a bunch of kids to lift to the roof of a barn, and there ain't no more bumpers.

One guys outhouse got turned over every halloween, he lived in back of the school. One year he let it be known that he was not going to have it happen anymore. He sat in the outhouse with his shotgun. After he went to sleep it went over with him in it. Ya shoulda seen the sight of that shotgun poking through the hole and waving around. Another guy lived alone, had no electric and you could almost set your watch by his trip to the outhouse every night after dark. Some guys set it back about 6 ft. He knew the path well and never took a light, yep, he fell right in the hole. Nope, I wasn't in on that one. POWDERMAN.  :D :D

I had a secret organization in H.S. called the Toilet Paper Bandits.  I bought a whole lot of 24 packs in my hayday lol... We even left a business card on the front step of the victims house lol...  (I really should have studied harder :D)  We got tired of TP and started getting huge rolls of pallet wrap from a guy that worked at a grocery warehouse... started pallet wrapping the doors of cars shut, the band teacher pissed us off one day so we got about 3, 24 packs of tp, and 4 rolls of pallet wrap... Wrapped the band building at school shut, then headed to his house and took telescoping poles, he had TP wrapped in the tip tops of his trees, in his shrubs, wrapped his car and truck doors shut, then TP'd them... it was on the roof of his house, in his yard...

There was a photo of it in the paper the next day... If I can dig it up i'll post it ;D
I'm voting 3rd party in this election by writing in Jesus Christ for president.  Sadly even if this were an option most of you would still vote Republican because "It's a two party system."

Tim you read my mind. The statue of limitations is normally 7 years. If he is 24 years old he could fall into that for sure. Dale

From the way I remember it. This was 25 years ago and I was 17 years old. I stopped by Tim's house Halloween night to see what was up. He was hid in the bushes and jumping out at trick or treaters scaring them. Well he sure scared the crap out of me too. Tim is this how you remember it? Dale

SSS. Business card??? Thats rich. Toilet papering is an art. nothing quite like g a tree covered in tp, draped ever so carefully, beautiful, especially with a gentle breeze blowing. Smeared lmburger cheese on a guys truck manifold. Never knew how bad it stunk til he picked me up to go rabbit hunting. Below 0, windows down, never did that again. POWDERMAN.  :D :D

Man powderman you were a terror.

We had bowling for gym in high school at a local bowling alley. A group of us walked the teacher's volks wagon out of the parking lot and as far out in a field as we could.

GRIMJIM. In the 8th grade our school never got new books, the bigger school got the new ones, we got their old ones. The county school superintendant  was visiting our school and parked his vw accross the road from the school. A bunch of us picked it up and set it crossways accross the ditch, Don't remember how he got his car back, but he was sure peeod. POWDERMAN.  :D :D
