The Watermelon

Good Stuff
Most of you already know the the story behind acquiring this watermelon. What most of you don't know is what we did with watermelon. And trust me, it was much cooler than throwing it off a bridge into traffic, blowing it up with fireworks, or using it for target practice.
 

Step 1: Ice the sucker. In our case, we had to pull a MacGyver and improvise an ice chest. A trash can and garbage big will do just fine. Style points go to the Captain for his quick thinking.

Step 2: Allow the watermelon to get good and cold. 

        

Step 3: Cut a hole into the melon. Homes and Gardens suggests that you cut it an inward angle so you can plug it back in later on.
Step 4: Apply a tasty beverage. Chances are you'll have to pour it in slowly. It also helps to use a butter knife to make slits into the hole. You'll want the slits to be angled away from the center of the melon so that your tasty beverage won't overload the center.
Step 5: If you look closely, you can see our cuts. From here you'll want to let it soak for at least two hours. If possible, give it a one-quarter turn every 30 min or so.
Now, I'm not going to say who did this (cough, Old Kim, New Kim, and Chris, cough), but someone in Matt's building decided it would be funny to draw this. Wow, y'all must be in the UGA Art Program.
This was on their door the next morning. Ha...ha...you so funny.
