Even in Texas, it’s not OK for cheerleaders to pee into drinks
Posted: April 8th, 2010 - 10:31pm by Doug Powell
Officials with a Texas school district said a group of high school cheerleaders was disciplined for giving 
urine-tainted drinks to teammates.
Administrators said at least two girls at Fort Worth's Saginaw High School received in-school suspensions and an unspecified number of their fellow cheerleaders received lesser punishments for serving sodas contaminated with a cheerleader's urine to their teammates during a basketball game late last year, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported Thursday.
