My sister went to college in Farmindale NY years ago. Some vertically challenged miscreant attemied a "push in" ronbbery. My kid sister is 5'10' and athletic. She shoved him aside and whacked him upside the head with a flower pot. Her only mistake was grabbing for another flowerpot, which gave the goblin a chance to drag his sorry posterior out of the dorm..
Did they have the ag programs back then? When our kids were little we used to visit the animals there.
