20. Do you have a school experience that really stands out in your mind, either good or bad?

My brother Randy and I helped start the wrestling team at Lake George High School. Our first matches were all scrimmages because we were not yet a legitimate team. One evening we got back to the school very late (about 7:00), it was cold, snowing and our late bus was not there yet. So we all sat in the foyer of the school. We were tired, doing homework, but not bothering anyone or anything. One of the janitors came and told us we couldn't wait there. He told us we had to go outside and wait. He locked the door behind us. I was really angry. I felt doing that putting us outside would be justified if we were causing problems, but we weren't.

I knew that the lock to the one of the windows in the boys locker room was broken. After the janitor left, I crawled through the window and let everyone back in the school. Meanwhile, Randy had made friends with a dog who was chasing snowballs and being quite friendly. Randy let the dog in the school and then opened the gymnasium door and let the dog in. There is a funny thing about dogs. When they are left alone in a strange place, they get nervous and when they get nervous they express it through their bodily functions. All of our gym classes were canceled the next morning while the janitors cleaned the gym.
