more late-night antics

18. PRANK WAR
When I was living in the Brick House at BYU, we became really good friends with a group of boys across the street at the Elms. They had a foos ball table and we decided we wanted it. So we stole it, thus ensuing a short-lived prank war. Getting the foos ball table out of their apartment was a festivus miracle in and of itself. Earlier in the day, we had stopped by and casually unlocked the sliding glass door that went onto the 3rd floor balcony of their apartment. We went back at 3 AM and Amylee skillfully scaled the wall, climbed over the balcony and unlocked the front door for the rest of us. We shut the door between the living room and the hallway to the bedrooms and luckily the air conditioning was on providing a little bit of a noise shield. We were armed with the necessary tools to dissemble the table and it probably took us a good ten minutes to do it. With 6 boys in that apartment, i don't know how one of them didn't wake up. It was extremely heavy but the 3 of us managed to get it down 3 flights of stairs and across the street. Apparently, someone across the hall saw us taking it down the stairs and didn't think to alert them or question us. We managed to keep it hidden and keep mum about it for a week. It was our greatest heist ever. They retaliated with a wall of popcorn falling into our front door and stealing our family photos from the mantle. We then broke into their house again, turning everything in the living room upside down. They had a mural of magazine pages from sports illustrated and espn and we even turned every single page upside down. It kind of fizzled after that, but I'd like to think that the girls won. We totally won.
