When Creativity Leads to New Rules

Machete Fruit Salad

During freshman year of university I found a machete on a hike near campus. Now for every other obvious reason this was a bad find, but there was only one school rule that came out of our shenanigans.

So out front of my dorm there was a little grove of trees, where you could duck/crawl under the branches and get to an enclosed area in the middle of the grove. It was big enough to stand and hang out in and a really cool spot where no one could see you.

So my buddies and I would take a lot of fruit from the cafeteria and bring it all with the machete to that spot. Then we would toss the fruit to each other, and slice it mid air. It was some serious real-life Fruit Ninja stuff, and we were having the time of our lives.

This went on for months, with us even taking pumpkins from the cafeteria in October and slicing those. All throughout this time, we were just building this massive fruit graveyard in that grove of trees.

Well, someone must have found it, because one day as we all tried to walkout with our arms full of fruit, we were told students were no longer able to take fruit from the cafeteria.

So our real life Fruit Ninja lifestyle ruined kids just trying to bring an apple with them throughout the day. Story credit: Reddit / Thefunkjunk
