VW mechanics 101

When I was a senior in high school, I walked into English class to find a Volkswagen parked in the room. During the night, students had passed junkyard Volkswagen parts through a window and then reassembled them, piece by piece, in the classroom. The prank was in protest of an $18 parking fee that had recently been imposed for the next year. Students considered the fee to be too much.

Everyone, including the teachers, thought it was funny. The car was quickly dismantled and taken outside. Classes were not held that morning in the classroom with the Volkswagen in the middle of it.
