11 Weirdest Things Teachers Have Ever Confiscated

We asked teachers what were the strangest things they have ever confiscated in their classrooms. Some of the responses were literally unbelievable. We put together a list of the funniest and weirdest ones. Enjoy!

1. "After hearing a girl scream in the middle of class one day, I asked what happened. She told me that one of the boys touched her with a 'giant booger ball.' She wasn't kidding... A couple of the boys were having a contest over who could stick the most boogers together into a massive booger ball. Disgusting!" -Mrs. J.

2. "One time, I walked into a study hall and found 2 boys hysterically laughing, while hitting each other with something. I told them to break it up and give me whatever they were using to hit each other. It was 2 fluorescent pink dildos. I can't even tell you how embarrassed the mother was, when she had to come into school to retrieve them." -Ron P., Fifth Grade

Apparently, they were going to leave it in their friend's locker overnight, as a prank!" -Mrs. G., Principalweirdest things confiscated bored teachers 6

11. "Once, I walked in the boy's bathroom and caught kids taking shots of something. When I made them hand over whatever it was they were drinking, it wasn't alcohol. It was a bottle of snake blood! One of the boy's dads had just returned from a trip to Thailand. Quite the souvenir!-Frank T.

    Take your pick: A bloody hunting knife from a Sp Ed 10 yr old. Then while teaching K: A worm farm in a cool whip dish.
    They were crawling all over the cubbies. A parakeet then later a baby raccoon in a tiny bird cage. The parakeet mysteriously got loose and was flying around the ceiling lights and dive-bombing the kids. 4 frogs in a cool whip dish. The top mysteriously came off and all 4 were jumping around the room.
