oh boy i have dozens

theres the infamous 'pop the paper back behind the tent' gag when two people inside are "busy"

we rigged the tent zipper so it wouldn't open on one

put honey all over the inside of somebody's tent and watched raccoons have a blast

rigged the tent so when the person stood up, the tent collapsed

snakes in the feet of sleeping bags

one night really really late we "invaded" a campsite where a whole bunch of annoying city people were and had a paintball war with M4 guns... i told the cops that in the darkness we lost track of where we were:D

we released my cousin's police dog on an unsuspecting friend of ours

put a dead deer in the bed with a buddy of mine, boy was he suprised

i tricked a few stragglers into eating berries that made them puke for hours

handed a buddy of mine some poison ivy to wipe with;)

threw a bear skin over myself (with the bear head and teeth still attatched) and broke though a cabin door and scared the bejesus out of a few buddies of mine

built a fire wall around the tent of a fellow firefighter and screamed "FOREST FIRE!" he just about shat himself

had a little fun with a coyote call in a very populated camp ground where city people are known to dwell and be petrified of the bump in the night lol

when camping in the winter a few of us cut a tree down in the middle of the night and screamed AVALANCHE!!!!!! and watched the camp empty lol

again when camping in the winter i hid inside a snowman and "came to life"

i've grabbed people's ankles from underwater and pulled them down

drew on their face in the night with permanent marker

tipped over the outhouse

rigged the outhouse walls to fall on command

put a stuffed skunk that was in the sleeping position in bed with a buddy of mine

flooded tents with indian tanks in the middle of the night

stuffed bear on his back paws placed at the feet of a sleeping camper so that it was the first thing he saw when he woke up

some very well-dug holes

switching toothpaste with creamed anchovies

doing some interesting things to ruin the value of toothbrushes

shortsheeting people

a single rock placed inside a pillow case so the person won't find it until they're sleeping and their head hits it

i took a deer head off of my wall and made it sound like it was attacking the camp, placed it so the outline was visible from the inside of the tent and made it look like it was charging the tent

took a few buddies camping in the middle of a cowfield (didn't tell them it was a cowfield) they were pretty suprised to find all of our bovine buddies munching outside the tent

when we made sure all of our friends were asleep, we packed our things up and moved about 50 yds away and took everything except them with us... we convinced them that they must have slept-walked and moved all of their stuff because we'd been there the whole time and were really scared when they weren't with us in the morning (we eventually told them the truth)

NOTE: if you think that some of these things are crude, they are nothing compared to what we've had done to us when camping. i had buddies fill my clothes pack with fire ants... talk about burning ring of fire... SHEESH... another one has a pet tarantula and brought it along without me knowning it, i woke up with it on my forehead and i'm not the biggest fan of huge hairy spiders being on me... they've left me hanging in trees, replaced my morning milk with white paint, put mice in my sleeping bag, and so much more lol

SECONDARY NOTE: the reason why we're so 'mean' to the city people that come up here is because they treat us like dirt... so what comes around goes around
