Pie-in-Face Contest gets Student Expelled
from ABC Toledo, Ohio

Tina and Don Molnar say a pie-in-the-face contest held by Danbury high school got their son expelled for 80 days. The school posted flyers asking students to pay 50-cents to pie their favorite or least favorite teacher or principal in the face! The students could enter as many times as they wanted. The Molnars' son was selected to throw a pie in the principal's face. After the contest she filed a complaint with the police. Now her former student could face charges.

The Molnar's say their 15-year-old son has a 3.5 GPA and has no disciplinary marks on his school record. The boy's parents filed an appeal to challenge the schools decision.

I'm confused...the kid was selected to pie the principal, but the principal wasn't into it? Sounds kind of dumb to me.
