Police confirmed that there were not multiple gunmen on campus, but rather it was students engaged in a
"nerf ball" game, according to a KatSafe notification received by a Houstonian staff member at 4:05 p.m.
UPD Deputy Chief James Fitch confirmed yesterday the students involved were from an organization within the University Theater Center, and that the group did not obtain permission from either the Dean of Students Office or UPD to play this game.

Nerf guns? Those things are huge and yellow or orange or some other bright color. Who would see those and call in a gun scare?

Even the liberal anti-gun guy I work with did a facepalm on this, and said only "stupid people" would call in a gun scare on a Nerf gun.

well, nerf is dangerous right? I mean it's ammo is harder than what comes out of a SuperSoaker ... someone could put an eye out ...

I want the "stampede" nerf gun (Fully automatic for ZOMBIES !!!!!!!!!!!!)

The answer to this silliness like this is for every student on campus to start scheduling outdoor games daily and call the Dean and the UPD every time for permisssion before play. The dean and the chief will change their minds in short order.
