panty raid
Fraternity underwear heist
A panty raid is a prank, associated with American college life in the mid-20th century, in which male students would storm a women's dormitory to steal underwear as trophies.
The term now evokes nostalgic images of 1950s campus mischief: The dean threatened expulsion for anyone involved in the panty raid.
Such incidents are largely a thing of the past.
