I think I was in 7th grade. We were watching. Right in front of our eyes and could hardly believe it. Everyone inhaled sharply and then a couple of short screems, then silence. After a good 5 minutes, our teacher came to his senses, turned off the TV, and started talking about being right with god because you never know when it's your turn.

I realized something was "off" when I found out that they counted my donations and sent me a letter saying that I was behind.

K through 8th grade and then I dipped.
