Want Revenge On Your Old High School?

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

Gotta love the reactions of the two kids getting their diplomas. "Thirteen years of school... for this?!"

If you're like us and didn't have nearly as much fun at your high school's expense as you think other people did, maybe you can live vicariously from this classic stage invasion during the Saratoga Springs High School graduation...  

At the ceremony yesterday, Calvin Morett, who graduated from the New York State-school in '07, "streaked" across the stage in a full-body penis costume while diplomas were being handed out. On top of that, Morett fired "silly string" into the crowd, which must have caused a total freakout from the nastiness of it all.

Anyway, the best part of the story is how they busted Morett, who actually tried to outrun the cops that eventually busted him for disorderly conduct:

"Once I stopped laughing, he was pretty easy to catch because he was tripping on the lower portion of the costume,'' said [Sgt.] Briscoe, who made the arrest.

Ah, Sgt. Briscoe, you took the punchline out of the joke-- he was tripping balls! He was tripping his balls off! Dude, he tripped over his balls and was captured by the police. 

Anyway, thanks for making our day, Calvin, you fearless kook...

What?  No video!?!?  What's wrong with these kids today--you don't show yer ass for fun without media backup crew in place.  Still, Calvin's got some stones, gotta give it up.
