It was a sign of the snowpocalypse.
A colossal, 900-pound snowball ripped a dorm room's wall apart at Reed College in Southeast Portland after a pair of math majors lost control of the icy globe, Reed Magazine reported.

The shenanigans started when several students began rolling the massive blob in a campus quad Saturday night, the report said.

It gets worse.  Thus proving the value of a college education is not as much as they say it is.

stay safe.

I saw that in a cartoon once!

I'm sorry, but that's *expletive deleted*ing funny.

Yes, it was stupid, and not entirely harmless, but it was silly and probably a load of fun until it broke the dorm.

Pranks and silly crap amoung the youth at various instatutions should be exactly like this (maybe next time without the $3000 bill)

Reminds me of my moms story of assisting a canoe on to the top of Wise Lodge back in her Camp Hanover days.

That used to be a winter passtime at my grade school, Herbert Hoover Elementary, and with half the kids in the school trying to help push and roll them, the snowballs would get up to a good 70" or more in diameter, and they'd break and fall under their own weight, or the playground moms would make us stop for fear someone would get crushed.

Probably helped that the playground was relatively flat.

[Shakes cane] Back in my day we had to roll our snowballs uphill both ways in the playground! And when it crushed a kid we just threw him to the side until recess was over. Casualties were acceptable and encouraged! [/getoffmylawn]

hitting the dorm was rather foolish, now if it had hit the deans house they would have been epic campus celebs.

I bet they are now on double secret probation.
