This one is kind of funny, but is actually a true story. I know because it happened to me.

I was in a night class at the college, History 108 or some such. Proffessor graded on a curve... at a certain point there were only 8 of us left in the class. One night while on a break, just before taking a test, we all decided that we would all fill in spot "B" on our scantrons... every single person, and see how he handled it. (grading on a scale....not only would we all fail, but we'd all ace it too)

Luckily, we didn't have some jerk in our midst, and we pulled it off. Took a minute or so for the 8 of us to fill out a scantron with 50 answers. We all started coming up and dropping our tests off on his desk. The teacher (Dr. Brax), is just looking at us all with a really strange expression. He starts looking at the scantron forms, and starts flipping through them one after another, and says "I can't beleive it....."

He stood up, looked at all of us.... and said, "Alright you bastards, this will only work once okay? ONCE.... you all passed with 100% tonight, but if you ever do it again I'll fail all of you, now get out of here and go have a nice night"

Cheers all around and we left.... that test would have really sucked if we all actually had to take it. That prof was actually pretty cool.
