So what's next?
Right now we're trying to figure out a great way to start getting some posters printed and getting them out to people. If anyone would like to start donating money (towards the production of the posters) it would be greatly appreciated. Once we get enough money to get the first batch of posters printed, we're just going to keep getting them printed until the demand dies. You'd think that someone selling posters for $3 a pop would get quite a bit of money from this, right? I don't want to. I'd love to try to get the proceeds from the posters and donate the money to the Hilliard Music Boosters. If anyone has any questions or concerns, please contact me at KGarchar08@yahoo.com
If you'd like to donate, please send via paypal to KGarchar08@yahoo.com

Proud of you.
That was an awesome video...must've taken a while to organize. Pure gold.
Kudos on a well planned and perfectly executed prank. ISS is a small price to pay for a job well done.
It was a great idea that didn't hurt anyone.
I read the story on FoxSports Net.
All the comments supported you.
There were some comments on there who wanted to write your school.
Now that I have an email address of your lame principals I plan to do it right now.
You & your friends deserve to enjoy your last year in school.
I hope your school gets enough emails to change your punishment.
I wish you all the best.
dude that was awesome! good luck with everything. suspension is nothing :D
sir, I salute you on you sheer brilliance. That took some major league balls to pull off that one.
WELL DONE SIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im an alumni of Hilliard High School, back when we only had one, and I thought that your prank was great! I think the punishment was way too severe and I will write a letter for ya.
Good luck in college and Go Bucks!
Best high school prank ever... EVER!!
Hmmm... I'm torn! I'm an alumni mom. LOVE THE PRANK! No one was hurt, no property damaged, no drugs or alcohol appear to have been involved - just MAJOR brain power! The activities ban is OUTRAGEOUS. HOWEVER, the precedent for senior school pranks as advertised (at least four years ago - ask my son how we know that!) is a 10 day out of school suspension - with activities suspended during that time. Of course no school work can be made up so your grades are "ruined." At least the 3 day inschool gives you access to class and assignments I hope? I'll be writing on your behalf none the less. Maybe Mr. Gerdeman would give you an honorary media credit for the production of the video?! Job well done, and good luck in college.
I went to HS in the 80s and I have to say that if this was done back then you would have probably recieved a school award for such a prank. I thought it was very well thought out and harmless (well at least noone was physically injured. Can't say the same about their pride).
The punishment was too severe. I hope you and your friends can look at this and laugh one day.
I'm 45, and I wish that I'd been half as clever today, or at any age.
Set up a scholarship fund, I'll throw in a ten spot.
dude thats school spirit off the chain...i'm spamming those board of ed bastards with a piece of my mind. cheers.
I am a 43 year old DARBY mom. LOVED THE PRANK!! Still laughing. I emailed your principals to reduce your 'sentence'. This was refreshing and great publicity for our area. Great job and GO DARBY! btw, we don't suck, do we?
i can't imagine how pissed off bondow is gonna get with all these emails. hahahahaha. i'd love to still be at davidson right now, seeing what its like in the hallways.
While you're in the ISS, just know that the school administration is paying for their garbage PR. Bigtime.
Great site, I blogged about it this morning on my site:

Keep us updated.
Tell your principal that he could be dealing with crap like this:

On second thought...I'll tell him.
GREAT prank. Kudos. ;)
You are a shining example of why corporal punnishment should be allowed back in school.
I find your disrespect of proper sportsmanship appauling, and hate seeing you whining about how you will no longer be able to participate in school activities funded by my hard earned tax dollars.
While planning this stunt of yours, did you think of the thousnads of young children across the country who will now think that actions like this are appropriate during school sponsored activities?
You, you disgusting little punk, should be swatted with a wodden paddle, 10 times. Afterwards not only should you be suspended from school, you do not deserve the free education our nation is providing you. You should be promptly shipped off doff to a military school, and on your eighteenth birthday be put on the front lines. That would teach you some respect!
Friggin' classic. I'm with another poster, in the 80's you would have been carried through the school by four guards and be worshiped. No dogfighting, no guns....take a look at your PP account. I sent some cash to you.
Nice execution, you should definitely major in marketing!!
random person....you can't be serious. I bet you don't let your kids run with scissors either....It was a prank. If all the world was a tight as you, we'd all be accountants. Give the kid a break and lighten up
Very funny stuff, Kyle. I put the YouTube video of it on my site today: http://quinnmedia.blogspot.com.
Good luck and please update us with more details.
The Omnipotent Q
Hey mate,greetings from Adelaide Australia ,you made the news down under that was hilarious well done
nice stunt, no harm no foul...
my only question is why anyone didn't realize that NONE of the letters would spell go darby.
:) still waiting on comment regarding this, on youtube account and, just recently here. will cya on my account :)
I am a teacher at a public school in Ohio and think this is great! I definitely will email whoever I can on your behalf. I am sure the "Powers That Be" want you to have good things to say about them when you make it in the World... and no doubt you will! Congrats and good luck!
Enjoy your senior year no matter what! (and think about getting a good lawyer!)
Kyle,
That was a great, funny, and intellignt prank. Get a lawyer. I know if you plead for one, someone will donate their services. You're all getting screwed. I was a Darby parent and I was very proud to tell my coworkers that smart teenagers are from Hilliard. Keep making us proud. All you did was put you hard earned math and media skills to good use. I will be writing to both Principals and the school board.
Hi Kyle, great prank! Could you tell us what the music is in the video?
THanks!
Kyle
As a HDVHS grad in 2001. I will tell you that prank was a stroke of sheer genius and i think it was perfectly excuted i will be email mr. bandow and mr. stewart and let them know how unjust is that you and your friends are being banned from activities ..a shame another Senior prank punished way beyong the necessary kind of like the one in 2000. GO CATS!!!!!
Absolutely brilliant! That was pure genius, so e-cookies for you for the guts and brains that took! I only wish our school's pranks were as good- this year the seniors forgot to show up.*eyeroll*
Random Person...you need serious help...Kyle you are awesome! Harmless good fun! Your Principal can't be serious...what did Darby's Principal do to the students who wrote in spray paint on cars in Davidson's parking lot- "Wild Cats Suck"? Talk about disrespect and destruction - I can't even imagine the cost of having the paint removed -
Kyle you have made a good name for yourself and for Davidson - you are known now through out the world for an ingenious harmless prank, where those using malicious methods and destruction will go on being losers. Congrats!!! Go Wild Cats Go Hilliard - you put us on a the Map.
Freakin Awsome. You're my hero.
what the hell are you talking about random person
What a funny prank. Since nobody got hurt and no real damage was inflicted the exclusion from all extracurricular activities seems like an extreme overreaction. Personally, I'd be bestowing recognition, not punishment. Just said the same to Dave & John; let's hope the massive show of support helps!
Kyle, what a great prank! As an educator with over 30 years in the public system, I must commend you on a prank that did not include alcohol, guns, drugs, or fights. I would hope your administors consider that your prank was harmless cross-town rivalry. It certainly has brought publicity to your district. It had to have taken many hours of planning. Congrats on your ingenuity and lots of luck on your future. PS--ignore random person. He/she needs to not take life so seriously. It only leads to ulcers and heart attacks!
it was a good prank, but i liked it better when it was harvard/yale like three years ago.
but props for having the balls in high school man, hope all is well
L,
Sean
Kyle, what you did was harmless and clever. Trust me, someday when you are 44 like me, you will be so F-ing proud of yourself and your kids will totally think their Dad rocks cause you do! Stay strong. You're no criminal just a really brilliant kid.
Sweet prank; just saw it on Yahoo! News. Brilliant!
Kickass prank, Kyle! In the words of Bruce Nolan in Bruce Almighty, "Be-e-a-UTIFUL!" My uncle, who was known for trying to sell elevator passes to freshman as a senior in his high school in Chicago, would be proud. I might have to email him the video on YouTube. Nobody got hurt, most people got a good laugh, and no one decided to go smoke anything under the bleachers.
I'm also a senior in Central Ohio, but at Jerome (which I think sucks in any and every possible way... I might have to borrow your idea, heh heh, only give the paper to the JEROME fans), and it seems to me the Hilliard HS principals are asses. I don't think our principals would do that (because they let the class of '07 hold an impromptu parade down Post Road while riding things like lawnmowers and someone actually got a front-end loader. Makes me wonder how they got their hands on construction equipment), or, I hope not.
The suspension is moronic and the extracurricular activities ban is just asinine. I, honestly, wouldn't care about the extracurricular activities ban because I don't participate anyway, but if you do attend dances and stuff, you're gonna be pissed.
As far as I know, there's been one principal like these morons in our school district since I started school. And unfortunately, she was in charge of my first school.
These guys... Did Mike Nugent drop-kick a 2 x 4 up each of their respective asses?
My brother's a fresh fish at Jerome and we're both hoping your sentence, because that's exactly what it is, gets reduced.
And Random Person... What the HELL is wrong with you? It's people like you who decide to have kids, and then the rest of us have to deal with people like Bandow and Stewart. Do the world a favor: Don't have kids.
Mr. Archer;
A) I wrote about your prank on my blog, here: http://deathbykids.blogspot.com/2007/09/i-hope-boy-turns-out-good.html
B) We'd love to talk to you on our radio show, The Dave & Chris Show, (perfectlyharmlessradio.com) here in Chicago on WJJG 1530 AM. We talked about your prank this week and tried calling your principal but I'm sure he's holed up in a janitor's closet somewhere with a gun in his hands.
C) Hey, rules are rules. You broke them brilliantly--genius level--but you still willingly broke them. You gotta serve. Maybe if you paid to create a stadium-wide flyer reading "MY BAD" they'd consider letting you off the hook.
In any case, well done. If there is a God, you'll be president some day.
Geez, what about points for ingenuity and actually completing the whole thing without a hitch! Someone ought to be handing out scholarships I'm thinking!
Both of my kids are college aged and I would be proud if they were able to pull off something so big that hurt no one. Carry on!
Nice job, Kyle. Hope your suspension is reduced - it's totally uncalled for.
Hey - you should sell t-shirts with a picture of the "We Suck" crowd on it; I bet you could sell them to both Davidson AND Darby students (who wouldn't buy one as a memento of their school year)? Try to get as many students as possible to wear them at school to support your cause.
And that picture HAS to be in your yearbook too. If the school won't publish it; then print up a stack and sell them to your classmates to insert in their own books when your yearbooks are distributed.
Hope you continue to have fun with this. GO FREE SPEECH!
Great job pulling that off!!!
the saoboard is proud of you.
Ignore that "Random Person" dumbass. He must be on the school faculty. It's people like him that bring down humanity as a whole.
That was insanely awesome. As previously mentioned, it was a great prank, no one was hurt; my senior class did worse.
You are a genius, best of luck to you. I'm sharing this with my friends, and I'll definately be writing an email on your behalf. Keep us updated.
