Alumni get nasty surprise as UW opens time capsule

As they cracked the capsule Thursday afternoon, University of Washington research team members expected to find a prim and proper package from the nifty 1950s.

What they got was a faceful of pornography, circa 1978, and dirty underwear.

The whole story.

Hey Wendybeth: what were you doing in the 80's?

Oh, those wacky college students!

Next they''ll be trying to see how many Playboy centerfolds, shriveled-up condoms and double dildoes they can squeeze into a phone booth.

Haha! I thought that was pretty great.

€uroMeinke · 05-05-2007, 10:02 AM

Brilliant

Sounds like the time I put a certain picture in the church bulletins...

Uhm, I'm not sure I remember. When did they get rid of Quaaludes?

Haha... cute prank. Glad they didn't remove the original items, but bloody brilliant to add more

RStar · 05-05-2007, 11:12 PM

At least they left the original items intact. But I think it's a shame that they had no respect for the original intent of these folks. A time capsul is suppose to remain sealed until opened by the ones who sealed it. It's just not cool for someone to mess with that.

Yeah .... so then perhaps putting time capsules on college campuses (campusi?) is not such a hot idea.
