Real-life Super Mario Bros. game gets teens arrested

Five teenage girls in Ohio face potential criminal charges after bystanders were alarmed by boxes wrapped in gold wrapping paper with spray-painted question marks that the girls had placed around town for a live-action game of Super Mario Bros. The Portage County Hazardous Materials Unit and Bomb Detection Unit were called in to investigate the suspicious packages.

I guess kids getting to act like kids is one of the things America has to give up in the name of security. If teenagers do goofy things, the terrorists have won.
