[QUOTE="rgard, post: 1771199, member: 4157"] [b]My contribution[/b] Wasn't creepy, but totally unexpected... We played D&D1E regularly in the house lounge at the dorm. One Friday night we wanted to play, but the Star Fleet Battles crowd took over the house lounge so one of the players who lived off campus said we could play at his apartment. Henceforth I shall refer to this player as 'apartment' guy. So we went. Everything is normal; we're slaughtering orcs and goblins; ordered pizza; pizza arrives and we take a break. Apartment guy walks over to his sliding glass doors to his balcony. He opens the doors wide and picks up a wicker basket that has surgical tubing tied to the two handles of the basket. The other ends of the tubing are tied to the drape hooks that flank the glass doors. He yells to his roommate to throw him a potato. Roommate does and turns off the over head light in the area of the room right infront of the balcony opening. Apartment guy then pulls the basket back the entire length of the room stretching the surgical tubing...yes folks a very large slingshot. He lets go and the potato is launched. We run to the balcony (trying to hide behind the drapes) and look out and hear a large crash as the potato smashes through the window of a convenience store two streets away. We see the staff run out of the store and look up and down and across the street trying to find who 'threw' the potato. At this point we are all barely containing ourselves from laughing out loud. Apartment guy watches until the staff go back inside and launches a second potato that hits the bottom of the store's door with a loud crash again. Same reaction from the staff. After about a 1/2 hour, apartment guy's roommate remarks that they are out of potatoes. Roommate then walks over to the same convenience store and buys a sack of potatoes. Never expected all that when we went to play D&D. Thanks, Rich [/QUOTE]
