HEALY — A group of Georgetown students pulled of a major heist this weekend in what is being called “the biggest prank of the decade”. The unknown group of students in question managed to steal the hands of President DeGioia.

In a statement released from Vice President of Student Affairs Todd Olson, DeGioia reportedly has “no idea” when the event occurred. He does, however, believe it to be some time between 5pm last night, the last time he remembers seeing them, and 11am this morning when he noticed they had disappeared.

President DeGioia has reportedly refused to take his arms out of his pockets since his hands were stolen.

“I was just walking around campus, I looked down and the hands were gone! I couldn’t believe it.” He is as perplexed as any as to how one could have pulled off such a seemingly impossible feat and asks anyone with information to come forward.

This heist is the first time in nearly six years that students have managed to steal the hands off of President DeGioia.

“You always hear about legends like this but you never think it will really happen,” said Sophomore Irene Yuez (COL ‘17). “I hope one day I can steal the hands off of President DeGioia.”

As per tradition, University officials speculate that the hands are en route to the Vatican.

“We don’t know if Pope Francis will bless DeGioia’s hands,” said Building Manager Ron Wall. “At this point we just want this staple of Georgetown back in DeGioia’s possession.”

There is great speculation around campus as to how the pranksters pulled off the feat and as to which campus group is responsible. Some point fingers at Outdoor Education, stating that the group leaders scaled up the side of DeGioia’s house and snuck in through the window, wearing guilly suits.

The most popular theory is, however, that Georgetown Club Golf accosted DeGioia during his Sunday afternoon tee time, using a golf cart as an escape vehicle.

A few believe that DeGioia “never had hands this whole time.”
