Today the tollbooth at the exit for Richard Rich Academy was demolished to be replaced by an automatic electronic reader gantry.
The tollbooth contributed to air pollution, sound pollution, and light pollution in the poor black neighborhood that the tollbooth separated from the affluent white suburb where the Richard Rich campus is located. Workers at the toll booth suffered high rates of asthma, cancer, and miscarriage.
Richard Rich students mourned the loss of a longstanding annual tradition where freshmen sneak out of the dorms on the first night of school to drive through the toll booth naked and “flash” toll booth workers. Two years ago a student got his genitals caught in a car window as he was attempting to perform the annual “prank” and caused a six-car pileup which resulted in injuries that hospitalized 11 people.
Richard Rich’s lawyers note that the correct terms are “indecent exposure” and “sexual harassment” and students are entirely responsible for their own legal costs. All school trophies, commemorative mugs, and t-shirts from this tradition have been confiscated.
