As a school administrator I can attest that there are certain activities that for whatever reason have brought the worst out in my students. Badminton comes to mind. I had more discipline referrals stemming from that sport than any other activity. Nonetheless, it still surprised me when I came across this article from 1989 (June 13) from The Vancouver Sun. I checked the date twice to ensure it wasn’t April 1. I’m glad these seniors found safer means like lawn darts to quench their competitive thirsts in a safe manner.
