Does this years Shaker Height Raider Nation Yearbook cover contain the F Bomb?
Students at Shaker Heights High School noticed something interesting about the cover of their 2009 yearbook: someone managed to sneak an F-Bomb on there. A graduating Shaker Heights student who designed the yearbook cover managed to sneak the letters “FY ALL” on the cover, a subtle way of sneaking the message “F–k Y’All” to his classmates and staff. The F-Bomb is cleverly concealed amid a drawing of “Red Raider” mascots on the yearbook cover. Principal Michael Griffith said distribution of the Shaker Heights yearbook had been suspended and that “cosmetic surgery” will be done on the books to blot out the offending phrase. The blotting out of the F-Bomb brings to mind the infamous incident involving former Major League baseball player Billy Ripken, who accidentally had the words “F–k Face” appear on his baseball card. Baseball card makers Fleer then blotted out the offending message in future editions of the card. Students didn’t seem to upset by the Shaker Heights F-Bomb yearbook cov
The cover of this year’s Shaker Heights High School yearbook is a creative interpretation of a crowd of “Red Raider” mascots drawn by an artistically gifted student. But when administrators discovered a farewell message containing an F-bomb hidden in the artwork, it was their faces that must have turned red. Principal Michael Griffith wrote a letter last week to students and their families explaining that distribution of the yearbook had been suspended because “an obscenity was cleverly concealed in the cover artwork.” Sources: http://www.cleveland.com/tipoff/index.ssf/2009/06/shaker_heights_high_school_yea.
