School Sports DayAt some point in the distant past, someone at my school had built a large concrete tank behind the sheds and called it a swimming pool. Proud of this, they had a "Swimming Sports Day" in which everyone had to participate, even those who couldn't swim (they got to walk across the shallow end of the tank).
This would probably have been OK if the pool hadn't turned a deep opaque green the night before due to lack of maintainance. Even the school sports stars didn't want to go near the gloopy mess in the pool. We were practically pushed in. I'm sure some of the younger kids never surfaced again and the non-swimmers looked petrified.
Tell us your sports day horrors.

I got banned from doing sports dayI always got roped into doing all the races nobody else wanted to, as a result I did most of the races on the day and wasn't very good. However, when we finished the race we would go and sit down on chairs in the order we had finished. In the confusion I would sit my self down on the 1st, 2nd or 3rd chairs. This worked suprisingly well and my form won one year becuase of me. They eventually did get privvy to the scheme and i had to spend the year 11 sports day in silence with the vice principle in her office.
Now you can have a PE story. I was never that good at PE (but i wasnt one of the fat kids that would get their mum to write them a note every fucking lesson) and my classmates knew this. We were playing softball and one gobshite shouts "Cockfosters is batting, field in". Not only did i twat the ball off the field, as i ran i launched my bat and hit him sqaure in the bollocks. He didnt walk right for about a month.
