Receptionist Mistakes Fresh Prince Theme Song for Threat; School Goes Into Lockdown

[sailingaway]

The teen's voicemail greeting triggered a lockdown at his Pennsylvania school after a receptionist misheard his rendition of "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" theme song.

While trying to confirm an appointment with 19-year-old Travis Clawson the receptionist thought the message said "shooting people outside of the school." The line is actually "shooting some b-ball," a reference to basketball.

The receptionist called 911 and Economy police arrested Clawson a short time later at Ambridge Area High School, but released him once he explained the message.

Acting police Chief James Mann says police acted "appropriately" out of concern for students' welfare.

"when the world never seems, to be living up to your dreams, and suddenly you're freaking out, the fact is life is running out for youuuuuu."

At least that's how I heard it.

Any other old sitcoms that could cause a panic???

seriously. She called HIM and got this on his voicemail, and put the school into lock down.

The funniest thing about this is that this is probably the first time any thought of Will Smith as "gangsta".

Pretty soon someone's going to get arrested for singing the theme song to All In The Family.

Or for singing the national anthem. We can't have "bombs bursting in air", you know.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Anti Federalist again. I would never scoff at such a thing. IMO, they're beyond saving. (as are a number of people in the "liberty" movement, but that's another story)

or playing the 1812 overture.

QFT.

This will be appropriate on a lot of threads today. Now where's that thread about the kid who chewed his pop tart and the teacher said it was a gun?
