The library at Allegheny College was being renovated, and the wrecking ball somehow broke free of its chain. It rolled down the hill into town, hitting some dozen cars (kinda like a pinball game down the street), finally slamming into the back of a students car. He only survived because his back seat had a bag of soccer balls he was taking to a game. Luckily this occurred during the summer, or the situation would have been much much worse!

They were remodeling the library and were working with a wrecking ball that was too heavy for the crane. It fell off the crane, bounced down the hill (our college is on a hill) and landed in the back of a student's car. In honor of the occasion, they named the little coffee stand in the library the "Wrecking Ball Cafe."
