Kissing Prank Gone Awry [VIDEO]

This is a prank that went way south! This was a gag at a  pep rally assembly at Rosemount High School. It was supposed to be a joke. But when it went viral on YouTube some people didn't find it the least bit funny.

U.S.News reported;

"As principal I am responsible for everything that happens in the school so, ultimately, I am the person that needs to answer for this," school principal John Wollersheim said Wednesday. Staff at the school planned a prank for the assembly during which each of the winter sports team captains were blindfolded and kissed.

The idea was that the students believe the kisser was another student and then guess who it was but the joke was the mystery kisser was that student's mom or dad. It was a gag that ultimately went awry.

Who in their right mind would even think that this prank would be funny? I find this terribly disturbing.  What are your thoughts?
