[Trapper Keeper] Why was it banned?

[JDizzle4Rizzle]

I remember begging my parents to get me a trapper keeper when I was in 3rd grade or so, and they finally bought me one. Then I got to school the next day only to be told that they had been banned by the administration. I never found out why.

TW detectives, why was the trapper keeper banned in schools?

[telos]

you must have gone to a nazi school.

The day my school banned pogs was a sad day though

They could be used to easily conceal weapons.

1. Because the poor kids didn't have one, making them feel inferior.
2. Because the teachers were annoyed by the velcro.
3. Because as we speak, your wife is becoming a star in a German porno involving 3 large men and a maneuver known as the "Brandenburg Express".

Remember the clip that held papers on the inside of the back flap?

Fucker could easily break fingers. Never understood the need for such a strong spring.

I remember when schools banned learning

 

[old_skul]

I had a trapper keeper from like 5th grade through my senior year.

Then again, I also had multiple pairs of parachute pants, and in my senior year of high school, I'd regularly dress in a longsleeved black shirt with a skinny white tie.

i remember my school's supply lists always saying "no trapper keepers"

i asked why one time and they said something like "because they won't fit in your desk"

I had this one:

I never got a straight answer to why they were not allowed. I've only found goofy shit like kids making cubicles with them on their desks so they could fuck around behind them or something.
