Food Fights
In the 2007-2008 school year, 7th graders in the Stroudsburg Middle School participated in a food fight on the last day of school with lunch, which resulted in one teacher fracturing her leg and one student with a concussion. After this incident, more security guards have been dispatched into the Stroudsburg Intermediate Elementary School, Stroudsburg Middle School, Stroudsburg Junior High School, and Stroudsburg High School during lunch periods. Schools have threatened students who participate in a food fight with suspension or expulsion.

Famous quotes containing the words food and/or fights:
“That food has always been, and will continue to be, the basis for one of our greater snobbisms does not explain the fact that the attitude toward the food choice of others is becoming more and more heatedly exclusive until it may well turn into one of those forms of bigotry against which gallant little committees are constantly planning campaigns in the cause of justice and decency.”
—Cornelia Otis Skinner (1901–1979)
“A man is but an ass
Who fights in a cuirass,”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
