You and
a couple buddies are walking alongside a beautifully landscaped
college campus. The weather is sunny and warm and the well groomed
lawns look inviting. Taking a lazy stroll across the grounds looks
like such a great idea. What you might not have noticed though are
the two college students walking along a short distance behind you
and your friends. What you don't know is that these two guys work to
maintain that property to pay their schooling and have the keys to
every sprinkler control box on that fifty-six acres.
Yes my
friend Paul and I were that evil. Watching those young people enter
our domain put us right into our element. As soon as we knew where
they were headed we ran to the appropriate control box, opened it up.
Took quick note of the system map, if we weren't already familiar
with it and then worked as a team. One of us would follow the
intruders calling out system numbers to the other still stationed at
the control box. When they got out of range of those sprinklers we
moved on to the next appropriate controller and went through the
whole process again.
I'm not
sure how wet these people got but we hounded them from one end of
campus to the other. No matter which direction they turned they were
greeted by first the sound of air hissing out of the water lines and
then a shower of water. They weren't safe until they left campus. We
had a blast.
