The Bomb Squad was called to my school today, Hilarity ensues.

So I was in outdoor ed. Its just a class where we do outside shit, like abseil, swim, and all that. Today we were doing navigation. There were three black boxes hidden around the general public we had to find and unlock with keys we also had to find. Good fun, right?
Well half way through we were all called out and forced back inside the school. It turns out the black boxes hanging around the public shopping centres had given people the wrong impression. The bomb squad was called in. While I didn't see it. I hear they had to destroy the box. T'was a fun day.
What was in them? Or were they just black boxes with nothing significant in them?
Did this make the news, if so, link please
At my old school, 3 boxes of M&Ms were delivered but no one came to sign for it, so the guy just left the $25 worth box on the ground.
The school thought it was a bomb. Called the bomb squad and had it blown up.

Funnies
It's more likely for a bomb to be in a backpack rather than a black box but they might get in trouble if they blew up everyones backpacks. Would be fun to watch though.
Alarmist society at its best.
We had a bomb threat. We had to sit outside in the sun for about 3 hours so the police, I guess, could scour the entire school looking for a bomb.
It only began because the people who worked in the office building found an envelope near the Dean's office that had white powder 'with a similarity to anthrax'. and also an unlabeled package
I remember two guys I knew hid a piece of paper under a printer in an English room. It said "A bomb will be detonated 20 seconds after this is printed" written by hand. The teacher flipped, the kids got computer privileges suspended and shit hit the fan around the school.
The fact that if someone sees a box and automatically assumes it's time to call the bomb squad really shows how frightened the public has become.
oh man, this is going to be my new hobbie :D
Who the hell hides bombs in big, obvious boxes anyway? Seems counter-productive to me.

Terrorists man. They are hiding bombs everywhere :ninja:
In my old middle school, on near the last day someone carved "at 3 PM u all dip" in the paint on a bathroom stall. We had to walk all the way over to the fucking pre-school which is about 10 blocks away, and we stood there and did nothing for half an hour while the police looked around the school.
Fun times.
How is this hilarious?

That's fucking crazy! Was it a school bus?
This actually shows what terrorism has done.
This once happened at my High School. It was fairly retarded. There was a rumor that a student had planted a homemade pipe bomb somewhere in the school and had delivered a letter to the staff saying he'd blow it the fuck up, but the letter wasn't received by the main office assistants until the following Monday, when everyone was [I]already at school[/I]. Our principal flipped the fuck out and put an announcement over an intercom that there may be a bomb inside the school and that we should leave as quickly as possible.
Now, in fire drills, you're supposed to form a line and exit quickly and organized, etc, but the teachers basically said "fuck it" and let the students run for their goddamn lives. They left and then we spent half the day outside doing nothing while the cops arrived and tried to root out the bomb.
Unfortunately, they found nothing, so instead of assuming the anonymous kid who sent in the threat was fucking retarded and that there was no bomb, they decided to do "further investigation", and school was resumed, but to be out the next day so they could look again.
HOWEVER, the teachers found out they couldn't take an extra day off for whatever reason, so they had a "come if you want to" day, as they called it, and sent a permission form to the parents of every student, asking them to sign if it was okay if their kid could come to school. Of course, my parents signed it.
Then, lo and behold, the next day everyone was there because parents think "bomb threat" means "joyous occasion" for some goddamn reason. Then the alleged bomb was found about halfway through the day teacher, and it was a pipe bomb, but it was basically shorted and disabled out according to the policemen, who gave a statement at the end of the whole charade in front of the entire student body. The day ended early, everyone went home, the kid was never identified, and nothing happened afterward.

Fear is their weapon, that's why it's called "terror"ism

That was fucking hilarious.
One time a bus crashed into the front office of my school... The driver was arrested and sentenced for 30 years in jail for Terrorism, Apparently there was a lighter on the bus... ONE FRICKING LIGHTER!

It was a city bus. But it was near one of our busses. Which were near to others. And near the school. The explosions could cause a huge fire and burn the school down.
