Just remembered a practical joke gone wrong. 😳
When I was 14, some friends and I got some water balloons on Halloween night We decided to ring people's doorbells, yell "Truck or Treat," then throw the water balloons when they'd answer the door. Then we'd run.
What we DIDN'T know was that half of the high school football team was having a party at one of those houses. Uh oh! We ran like holy hell. The guys jumped in a pickup and came after us. We hid in bushes, behind houses, oh my God. I'll never forget the sound of their pickup going up and down the street, searching for us. Luckily, we got away. Those dudes were PISSED. They wouldn't have hurt us, but they sure would've made things "unpleasant" if they'd caught us!
Running like that, out of breath (and in the dark) was like being in a horror movie. 😅
