26 cheerleaders get stuck in elevator at UT's Jester Residence Hall

AUSTIN -- Forget Aggie jokes.

Cheerleaders attending camp at the University of Texas have provided more than enough funny fodder for the state this summer.

Ever wondered how many cheerleaders can fit onto an elevator? We’ll give you a hint: Not 26.

But a group of peppy campers found this out the hard way at UT’s Jester Residence Hall.

Twenty-six cheerleaders packed into an elevator there, but it got stuck and stayed that way for about 30 minutes.

Some of the girls passed out.

Others used their cell phones to call for help.

Just a few weeks ago, teens at another campus cheerleading camp had an entire dormitory evacuated after they smelled an unidentifiable odor.

Funnier than that is the last line of the story where the burnt popcorn caused “respiratory problems”.....

I love that escalator video

Nothing represents the government-dependant liberal like that video!

.....Others used their cell phones to call for help......

It took a while for this to occur because at first they called each other to ask what to do

Darling girls,,the young always remind me of labrador puppies for some reason. Texas girls are so cute but Louisiana girls beat them, hands down.

I used to live in that dorm. Never had that kind of luck when I was there. Of course I always thought the elevators were a risky proposition back then. They never worked well and were always very slow. I walked up to my sixth floor room a lot.

So this wasn't just the lead-in for the third season of Heroes?

Save even more cheerleaders, save the world.

An escalator can never break. It can only become stairs. You would never see an “Escalator Temporarily Out Of Order” sign, just “Escalator Temporarily Stairs. Sorry for the convenience.”

The article continues:

"Just a few weeks ago, teens at another campus cheerleading camp had an entire dormitory evacuated after they smelled an unidentifiable odor. Hazmat crews descended on the scene and discovered the culprit: burnt popcorn. But the benign source of the smell didn’t stop dozens of cheerleaders from complaining of respiratory problems."

Too funny!
