31 Senior Pranks That Helped the Graduating Class Go Out With a Bang

Historically, senior pranks have run the gamut of chaos. Some students have released thousands of crickets into the hallways, some freed a trio of goats labeled “1,” “2” and “4” and some hired a mariachi band to stalk their principal all around campus.
But one year, a few students decided to change course completely. “The seniors at my school hyped up the prank, put posters everywhere, handed out flyers, posted daily on social media,” recalled one Redditor, adding that his classmates “installed a countdown clock” and even alerted local media in publicizing the soon-to-be prank.
The gag of it all? There was no prank at all. “The clock struck zero,” they wrote. “Nothing.”
This spectacular anti-joke is just the beginning — from forced snow days to cars appearing in the library, these senior pranks deserve a spot in the hall of fame — and probably the principal’s office.
