RE: Deer camp pranks
There is always somebody in deer camp who drinks to excess.
In one camp, I saw fella's dump a small bag of potatoes into bed with a fella who had a little too much to drink. We could hear those potatoes hit the floor all night as he tossed and turned and caused an occasional potato to fall out of the bed. Must have been awful uncomfortable.
In another camp, I witnessed the worst prank I have ever seen. A fellow returnrd to deer camp after visiting a local tavern. He had imbibed to excess and relieved himself before coming into the camp. He forgot to re-zip his fly, and subsequently fell over backwards onto a cot beside the woodstove. The fella's were playing cards and got quite a kick out of him laying there like that. One of them got up and cracked a couple of eggs and seperated out the egg whites. He put the whites into a cup and set it on the stove to warm it slightly. He then poured those egg whites (at aproximately body temperature) into the open fly of our "friend". He had long underwear under his jeans. Those whites, (so we all assumed) must have gotten quite crusty on his longjohns by morning. The joke was to make him think he had experienced a pleasant dream. Anyhow, he awoke the next morning (with quite a bit of coaxing), to go hunting. The first thing he wanted to do was change his long johns. There was laughter all around, but the fella never caught on to what everyone was laughing at.
I was never comfortable sleeping at that camp after that one!
