During the "Great Snowball Riot of 1968" (Well, I think it was '68) which happened just before everyone left for break, a bunch of kids rolled HUGE snowballs -- which turned to ice -- and blocked Union Street in front of Baker Center. The Athens Police got the state to send two road graders down the street at a fairly high speed to move the offending spheres. One of the huge ice balls just bounced into -- and totally trashed -- some poor soul's car which was parked in front of the College Green.
