The classroom can be a place of nothing but boredom for a lot of students, and so some students can take it upon themselves to spice things up a little bit.
From people sneaking goats into their class to students who had all manner of wildlife living in their backpack, here are 15+ times people snuck strange things into classrooms!
“Wake me up after the class ends.”

That cat might think that it is being all adorable now, but when the end of term exam comes it is going to be screwed!
“In my engineering lecture this morning. One of these things is not like the other…”

Dear Christ, it took me an abominable amount of time to find the dog in this picture! Let me know if it also took you an incredible amount of time!
“Saw this guy in class today, and yes that is cheese.”

Yep, just a guy munching on a whole block of cheese. This is like when you desperately need health in a video-game and just have to eat anything in your inventory.
“Snuck this into a paper about ‘sexual morality’.”

I can imagine that the academics marking these papers would love this kind of thing, academics love this brand of humor after all!
“A picture of my brother in P.E class today.”

Over a year ago we would have thought it impossible to sneak an entire packet of Cheetos into P.E class, but times have changed!
“So I was in bio lecture and all of a sudden…”

I mean, they say “all of a sudden,” but how “suddenly” can a tortoise really appear. They’re famously quite slow creatures after all.
“Grandpa does NOT want to be in painting class.”

I would absolutely rather buy this angry painting than one of the paintings on display at the front of the class!
“A kid at my school decided to show up to class like this.”

I mean, above all I am wondering…why? But, I guess that he must have his reasons, probably.
“University students hard at work during lecture.”

Ah yes, the days of being in lectures where you didn’t care about the topic, classic. Actually, I always took notes cause I was a big nerd.
“He was bursting into all of the lecture and dining halls like this.”

I love the guy on the far right just desperately trying to focus on his work despite the saxophonic insanity just to his right.
“He asked the teacher for a pen.”

Lending pens is a dangerous game. However, one crafty person did also write, “When I worked as a cashier, I kept a giant novelty pen at my register for people to use. It was over two feet long. Ain’t nobody stealing that b***h — not on my watch.”
“My teacher nailed his student’s phone to the wall for using it in class 20 years ago. It’s still there to this day.”

I can imagine that there would be a lot of teachers out there still who would love to nail their students’ phones to the wall. Christ, that would be a satisfying moment.
“My friend is a middle school teacher. She caught a student with this today.”

As far as iPad screen protectors go, this one seems pretty substantial. You’re not likely to sit on it and break it when it is in this bad boy!
“I snuck my dog into class…”

You would never be able to get my dog into a backpack, although that is because he is a little bit portly. He’s on a diet though, so maybe in the future!
“My teacher friend thought a student was checking the time too often during a test…”

Modern problems require modern ways to cheat your way around those problems!
“My friend’s mom is an elementary school teacher. One of her students told her that he brought his cat to school, she didn’t believe him until he opened his backpack.”

That is exactly how I would imagine a cat that had been kept in a backpack would look when it finally escaped. Bewildered as h**l!
“Someone brought their pet to class today…and it kept staring at me.”

Judging from the way that goat is staring at this person, they must have pockets filled with hay.
“Does this student look baked to you?”

I just cannot imagine how hot it must have been in there and how uncomfortable that lecture must have been.
“I was in a lecture yesterday and the girl sitting in front of me had a bearded dragon on her shoulder.”

Okay, so what is the deal with people bringing all manner of animals into classrooms and lecture halls? Did I just miss this trend when I was at school?!
“Just casually eating corn on the cob in a lecture.”

I typically make a catastrophic amount of noise and mess when I eat corn on the cob, so I do not know how this person has the confidence to eat this in a room full of strangers.
