That is our way at my college to say "Get Her Done"... since are mascot is the Gator. I know, being in the Northwest and all, that doesn't make any sense. One would think we would have choosen a tree, an eagle, or something that actually lives on the 186 acres of the college... but no, we are the Gators.
Anyway, we are having an Employee Campaign for our Foundation. They collect money from donations for scholarships for students. So we have teams on campus. For about three weeks we have various events to bring in money for the cause. Our team had a Pancake Breakfast last week that brought in about $300. And today we had a fund raiser called "Gat'or Out of Jail" where we have the deans etc arrested. There is an amount that is raised to put them into jail, and the same amount much be raised in the hour they are jailed to bail them out. We were able to raise... can you believe it... $6,500 from that one event. I wonder if we will get the pizza party. Yeah!
Here is how we did it... we made the office look like a jail (props from the Drama department). 
We then had the head of our security "arrest" our deans and directors with real handcuffs and a ball and chain. 
We have them a "fair" trial... it was really a Mickey Mouse of a court. We had a skit etc. I got to play the "judge" today too. 
There was even a jury... who would alway find the accused "GUILTY" surprisingly enough. Below they are debating their verdict.
The accused was then taken and a mug shot was taken. They would get to dress up for their picture.
This guy above, is Bill... he is our dean. He was put in jail... and I could hear him in his office next to our office calling people to come and bail him out. He is a funny guy. What a way to spend your lunch hour... huh?

It had been a while since I had been to one so I found out I wasn't prepared. No lock etc. So, I went shopping and I am ready to begin again today. This very morning. I even got a bathing suit for the pool. So, I am ready to go now. I will report how it was my first time out.
