A senior class at a school my mom taught at did this once, as a senior prank. They all cut gym, stripped down to bathing suits, and had a pool party in someone's betarped pickup truck.
And then the freshmen stole their clothes, apparently.

Why not? Totally fun.

Awesome!
Nothing wrong with doing what works.

Little does everyone know, those are actually Stranger staffers.

skipped so many classes senior year to do this. best also to drive around with water guns..

kc on July 27, 2010 at 7:03 PM

i'm actually pretty envious of that! nice work!

becksta on July 27, 2010 at 7:32 PM

my biggest concern is the fact that its not actually hot outside

More Seattle diversity, white trash.

Re: the red neck white boy

I'd totally hit that.

"Necessity is the mother of invention."

Yes, it looks totally white trash, but it's better than any pool I have in my yard. Just about perfect for the 3 hot days we get here every summer.

definitely had a friend that did this w/ some regularity in college. releasing the water is the best part, as if you stand in front of the tailgate while opening it, it basically knocks you over. make sure you do it on grass so your landing is soft.

captain underpants on July 27, 2010 at 11:19 PM

Haha this is amazing. If i had a truck I'd do this too when its too hot out.

@18: Me too. I wouldn't give a shit about how trashy it looked. Mini-pool on WHEELS, bitches.

is that the MC from the Crescent?

dznqbit on July 28, 2010 at 4:43 AM

Awesome-sauce.

samanthaf63 on July 28, 2010 at 7:01 AM

AMAZING.
All you haters just jeallllouss!

Caralain on July 28, 2010 at 8:03 AM

Both trashy in its awesomeness and awesome in its trashiness.

About a week ago I saw a woman curled up in a loveseat on the back of a pickup parked under a tree (This was on 14th Ave E.) She had a book and looked terribly comfortable, but I didn't get her picture. I wish I had.

bleedingheartlibertarian on July 28, 2010 at 8:36 AM

You guys, I am super proud of us right now. Not one person in the first 25 comments said anything about the woman in this picture being something other than a size 0. I actually feel a little bit good about the world right now. Sniff!

leek on July 28, 2010 at 12:30 PM

Kick ASS!

@ 7 and 19 (I simply could not choose): FTW.
