CHS parking lot: behind the scenes shenanigans

Chase Porter
Staff Writer

Most of you students get to the parking lot from around 7:45 to 8:10. At 3:50 you hop in your car and wait in the line but what happens for those good 7 to 8 hours when your not there?

Being an afternoon duel credit student I have the exclusive privilege of seeing what goes on while most of you are still in classrooms learning. Today, as I walked outside to get to my car I noticed a large number of unusual things.

First off, Mr. Lopez, the parking lot security officer was no where to be found. As a matter of fact his golf cart was not in sight either.

Secondly, I noticed someone received one of the most demoralizing gifts of the parking lot ever; the tire boot. Having no previous experience with such a terrible object I had no idea how to get it off or what you had to do in order to get it off.

Finally, there was a fair amount of police activity out in the rows of cars. Some officers were working on the evasive driving behind the stadium and another was investigating a students car. I have no idea what the car looked like but the officer had a tape measure and a camera; I’m not sure what he was actually doing.

Other things that caught my attention was a large sign spelling PROM on the side of the tennis courts which isn’t unusual for this time of year. That idea was bound to be used sometime or another. Well, there you have it CHS students, if you have ever been curious about the school parking lot here are its mysteries. I hope you found this entertaining and educational; now you know to not put anything sketchy (illegal) substances in your car, avoid being booted, and park away from the stadium side because even police officers can crash while training.
