Not really a prank but once a guy comes walks past the doorstand and tells me "One of the stalls in the men's room needs to be looked at."

I get there and see the thing clogged by a thick pair of underpants. So I find a rubber glove and pick the thing up. Immediately a bunch of crap dumps out of them. Apparently, the guy in question crapped his pants and tried flushing the evidence down the toilet.

One of the concession workers used the stall in question while we were waiting for the last few to leave the auditorium. One of those last few went into the ladies room after the employee left it. No one entered between the employee's exit and her entering. She was in there for about 10 minutes and left in a hurry. We thought she was the culprit but were uncertain because the mess wasn't discovered until the next morning and the employee left for Europe for 6 weeks that morning at 6 am. and just returned a few days ago and confirmed our suspicions.

Bill, I had almost the exact same situation happen at a video store where I used to work. A rather mature woman comes in and asks if there's a restroom she can use. She seemed frantic, so I escorted her to the employee restroom (the only one in the store). Several minutes later, she scoots away in a hurry without even a "thank you." When I went back to use the facilities myself, I nearly [puke]

Yup, like a shit grenade went off. Even the toilet paper roll was caked with shit. I was the only one there for several hours longer, so I undertook the task of cleaning it up.
Ever since, I've been wary of people in that kind of hurry, and figure if that would ever happen again, I'll just quit. [Razz]

I came close to cleaning up a similar mess, but instead threatened to quit my job right then and there.

This was back when I was in high school at Quantico, VA. I had a part time job working at the Staff NCO Club on the Marine Base there -washing dishes, busing tables...the sort of shit job a 10th grader could get.

We had this wedding reception on a Saturday night. It was pretty busy and the party-goers were getting good and drunk as hell. I go to use the bathroom only to find much of it demolished.

Someone had either punched or kicked a hole right through one of the wooden walls of around the only toilet in that men's room. And in the bottom of the stall, down next to the toilet, some drunk bastard was lying face up, passed out with his pants down around his ankles. His upper torso was covered in vomit. His lower areas were soiled with shit...as was a good amount of the bathroom floor.

I only stayed in there long enough to verify the son of a bitch was still breathing. I informed my boss about the drunk in the men's room and the mess either he or another friend caused, adding that I would quit before being made to clean up that mess. The way I saw it, somebody in the wedding party needed to clean up the restroom and pay for its damages. And that's what happened.

One sad aspect is things probably would have went differently had this been some civilian affair. I would have just had to quit my job and leave a coworker with the shit/vomit detail. At least in the Marines there is some fair level of accountability.

The woman in question claims it was an accident, Bull Shit! Unless she has a serious anatomical problem, I believe when in. the sitting position everybodys asshole points down not up. What I've puzzled over is how she sprayed the shit everywhere without getting it all over herself.

Ever since, I've tried to figure out how she could make such a mess, and like you said, not get any on herself. Maybe a colostomy bag?

I imagine she took her colostomy bag (assuming she had one) and decided to use it like those cake frosting bags bakers use to decorate cakes. [Eek!]

I worked with a guy many years ago who had an ostomy bag. He once showed me an unused one. From what I remember, it would not be possible create a shit grenade like incident by accident.
Even if pressure were applied to make the contents expell, releasing the pressure would stop it and only a small quantity would be released.

Back when I worked at an office supply store in Richmond (it has since moved and there's now a furniture store there) we had a very similar thing happen to what Bill described. I do remember that the poor guy in receiving had to clean it up. I felt really bad for him. I wouldn't have had a strong enough stomach for that.

I've either aided in, or cleaned up myself, many more shit bombs than I'd EVER care to imagine.

Funny thing about it... they were ALL in the women's restroooms...

WTF do women think?

And just HOW does one manage to shit on the walls, floor, toilet anyway?

This happened to me once at the first theater I worked at. Luckily, there was a janitorial closet in the mens room with a garden hose and the bathroom had a good floor drain so I did not have to touch anything except to replace the toilet paper.
