Any grads have any funny stories of their days at the academy?

More than you know...

Ever have a night at the pool? As in the pool created in your showers?
Or "slip n slide" contests in the halls (CS-37 v CS-34 was good for that.

And the list goes on...

Ironing boards can work as snowboards...kind of.

Slip and slide in the halls can be fun, until the O-6 steps into the hallway and gets taken out. (INCOMING!)

This is true...you need some good lookouts!
 
I have seen video of the hallway surfing and soap aided shenanigans at USNA. Hysterical. Looks like so much dang fun. DS assured me he wasn’t and won’t be injured. Fingers crossed.

The entirety of Sijan was a pool last week... I think the sprinklers went off. Also, I saw a hot tub in a Sijan shower last week as well haha.

Hypothetically, my roommate was passed out on the floor (out of view of course!) and the AMT walked by... he did a double-take at our door and then walked toward it... I thought this was the end. Luckily, he only pointed at my other roommate, who studying with his eyes closed. Moment of horror.
 
And who hasn’t mattress-surfed down stairs in military schoolhouse dorms/barracks? Or taken flying mattress slides down freshly waxed and buffed classic linoleum floors? 😇

I know the OP is interested in USAFA, but wherever military people are housed together, fun can be had. The USNA clip at link below is remarkably like my own surfing days at Nimitz Hall at Navy OCS in the 20th c.
