I remember when Linton-On -Ouse tried to get the students a little more sporty and so had the senior course organise a competion in the Gym. Sadly the posters for this event were worded somewhat ambiguously:
"Intercourse Sports Afternoon
Wednesday in the Gym"
Perhaps it was an introduction to the famous typo "Marital Arts Demonstration".
