RANDOLPH, N.J. (AP) — A school official says dozens of students were detained and ordered to undergo blood and urine testing after a can of beer was discovered at a New Jersey high school football game.

Randolph Superintendent Jennifer Fano said in a letter posted on the district’s website that the can was found Friday night near a student section of the bleachers at Randolph High School.

The students were pulled from the stands and their parents were called so they could be screened for alcohol. Students who refused the screening face suspension under school district policy.

I’m thinking that at a high school football game, there are many in the crowd who are not students at that school. People from the community, parents and family of players, students from the other school, members of the general public, will be in the crowd.

On what basis can they assume such broad police powers, to demand blood and pee samples??

You and I are on the same page, FRiend. This was incredibly invasive...and it was unjust to assume it was one of the students.

This was completely absurd.

Littering laws aside, it would be fun to sneak an empty can into every school in the area every week.

LOL!! I love the way you think, FRiend. Let's give it back to them in spades. ;)

Littering laws aside, it would be fun to sneak an empty can into every school in the area every week. After a few ‘inspections’ the crowd size would probably dwindle a bit. Then the pre-game searches would start.

Just think of the excitement if you scattered a few empty .22 cases around the place, too!

“ONE can of beer found?”

It could have been worse,it could have been a cigarette.

High school students smuggling beer. Well, I almost never behaved like that.

No body saw me, no body caught me, no body can prove it.

But I still haven’t figured out how I kept from falling out of my seat in sixth period algebra.

In Bayonne, we drank our beer before the game. We hopped the fence to get in free during the national anthem-all the cops were looking at the flag. Just being a jerky kid.

This is pure bullshit. Sounds like a school shoot-em-up is in order.

LOL I graduated HS in ‘91...aced my AP English Lit final on mushrooms (long story)

Those kids are pikers.

[SkyDancer]

You’re giving true morons a bad rep. Always school levies/taxes are for the children which is a big lie. Here in WA something like a levy was pass and fully half went to staff.

[lepton]

*A* can?

Wow.

This is a college entrance essay just waiting to happen.

Thanks. I did catch that, but then did make a mistake when posting.

Of course that fact makes it even more absurd.
