Student brought Madonna's Sex book to school. Made it on one of the evening tabloid shows. Tossed small rodents into the open windows of passing cars. Sodomized baseball players with broom handle. Checked girls underwear on the way into prom to make sure they weren't wearing thongs. Blink 182

Only two of those are on Wikipedia.

At least while I was going to school there, my high school's football team never won a single game.

One of the older toilets used in a couple of the old school buildings (demolished for a newer one after I graduated) was permanently closed because it became so full of shit.

It was a toilet on a separate building, that was used for a couple of old buildings (one from the 1930's if the local oral history is to be believed), and another one from the 1970's. The stench was so unberable that the classrooms near it were also abandoned.

Oh, the school wasn't infamous for that. I think, pushing shit aside, it's so wonderfully mediocre that it didn't really have anything it was famous or infamous for.

That time the sewer backed up into the kitchen and all of the penises carved into desks and walls.

Dude.

Dude.

DUDE.

The penises carved into desk and walls because the sewer backed up? What the fuck??

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago

I know right? Kids don't need any reason to carve penises onto desks and tables and walls. They just do.

Someone burned down the portable houses in the back used for extra classrooms

Wow, and I thought the guys that broke into and pissed all in the halls of our high school were going wild.

Many of the classrooms were old Army barracks buildings. The people of the county were notoriously cheap and wouldn't ever pay for a new school until it literally started dropping chunks of plaster and cement in the classrooms. Yet, the basketball court was one of the best around.
