Red-eyed spider, Mr. Rogers adorn unique lockers, reveal LMVAOY Why not? senior Kristen Hershberger said as she ex- plained why she kept a black tarantula with red eyes in her locker. It was a different thing to do. Students kept unusual things like a Mr. Rogers post card, a Canadian Coke can, miniature boxing gloves, an exit sign, and road sign blink- ers in lockers. Many of the owners had no reason for put- ting them there; they just did it. 1 have no idea why I put blinkers in my locker, junior Chris Meisnersaid. I thought it would be appropriate. Unique decorations made oth- ers take notice of these lockers. So many people came up to me when they saw my Mr. Rogers post card and asked, Won ' t you be my neighbor? junior Diana Sheets said. It was fun to have people walk by my locker and say, Hey, you are weird! ' Hersh- berger said. Students found decorating lockers fun for different rea- sons. It was funny to see the looks I got from others, - ' Sheets said. When I saw the pictures I had put up, it reminded me of my summer fun, sophomore Sara Ay res said. Sophomore Royce Huffman used Fun Tack, a substance like silly putty, to put up his posters. It was fun to hear what people thought this stuff was, he said. Everyone thought it looked like a blob of gum or snot. What people put in lockers said something about them. People might have thought I was stupid or a thief, Meisner said, but putting blinkers in my locker showed I was humorous. — Sara Hebel Lockers Congregating by their lockers, jun- iors Duane Snow, Robert Knox, and Chris Lepper work on last minute homework assignments.
