At states we always duct tape a kid to a tree (usually the biggest slacker). We then put make-up on them and let them stay there while we play around.

Oh, someone from our team does that at every competition. I can't ever bring myself to; I'm not usually superstitious, but I feel like it would jinx it or something :D .

Hehe, during invitationals one time, the plan was for me to tell the coach that i was too sick to compete, that I had threw up the morning of, because I was one of the team's main people. Unfortunately, I really did get sick, and did end up throwing up that morning. Actually, that was the sickest i've ever been in my life, but it's ok, cause i still competed and won 3 gold medals, a 2nd place, and a bronze =). To be fair, this was out of like 10 teams at an invitational, but still....

This isn't really a practical joke, more of a tradition. But at the end of the year, we burn one someone's shirt. Just to close the year.

And last year, we put all of these pepper flakes on our coaches' pizza after states, she took it pretty well (thank goodness)

That's it for me, I think
Hmmm... I wonder what this unmarked, glowing red button does? *push* Huh... no... Wait.. NO DON'T EXPLODE... XP<br>

At the annual dinner after Regionals, we have a tradition of putting salt and pepper in someone's drink while they're not looking :D
