Axel Hornbacher was excited to be drafted by the Portland Pythons since his father, Trevor Hornbacher, was an assistant coach for the Pythons under Rashaad Brooks from S3 – S5. Having grown up around the locker room in Portland and interactions with lots of players and coaches, he was familiar with a variety of pranks that had been executed in past seasons. This season, Axel knew that he would be the rookie on the team and probably subject to pranking himself, but he decided to take the lead himself to prank the other players during training camp. He went with a couple pranks to really light up the locker room. First he went with the classic ‘Hot Foot’ prank by taking toilet paper to make a wick on the side of a few of his teammate’s shoes and set it on fire. It was very enjoyable and eliciting quite a laugh in the locker room. After that prank, Axel pulled out the super glue for another classic prank. He glued his teammates’ shower shoes to the floor of their lockers. It was fun to watch everyone confused while trying to pull their shower shoes to go shower. It even resulted in a few guys falling into their locker!
