Will Smith, "Fresh Prince of Belair Theme Song"
Misheard Lyrics:
I'm all shooting some people outside of the school.
Original Lyrics:
I'm all shooting some b-ball outside of the school.
In March 2013, a 19 year old Pennsylvanian by the name of Travis Clawson quoted this line when calling an eye doctor's office to leave a message with the receptionist as to why he wasn't going to show up for his appointment, and quoted this line from the Fresh Prince theme song in his message. The receptionist misunderstood what Clawson was saying as a serious threat, prompting a whole district to put its schools on lockdown. The link to the news article on this: http://www.aux.tv/2013/03/a-misheard-lyric-in-the-fresh-prince-theme-song-put-an-entire-county-of-schools-on-lockdown/ (Editor's note: This entry had 'Travis Clawson,' the name of the student, listed as the original performer, which is incorrect.)
