GORHAM, Maine—Gorham High School students got a day off on Friday, but not because of an overnight snowstorm.

When employees arrived at the school at 6 a.m., they found snow piled 4 to 6 feet high in front of each of the 20 entrances. Somebody had also sprayed water into the door locks, freezing them shut in the subzero overnight temperatures.

Principal John Drisko expects the culprits will be identified through the school's rumor mill and surveillance cameras in and around the school.

School officials were going to just delay the start of school, but decided to cancel instead because fire codes require exits to be totally clear.

Best. School Prank. Ever.

1. Man, nobody ever did that when I was in school...

I mean yeah, I went to school in Florida, but still... :P

2. I was going to say the same thing, except that I went to school in California.

Then again, calling in bomb threats was probably easier and warmer.

I never did, but they'd usually coincide with days a few of the senior guys I knew had tests or wanted to skip.

4. I bet those kids are headed for M.I.T.

(a school famous for the ingenuity of its students' pranks).
