College Student Posts Picture of Klan Rally on Campus, Turns Out to Be Lab Equipment

A Bowling Green State University student raised the alarm Monday over the supposed appearance of a Ku Klux Klan rally on campus, which needless to say, turned out not to be a Klan rally.

The student in question tweeted the following, along with video of the “Klansman”:

Bowling Green actually looked into the incident, and its president soon tweeted that the Klan rally was actually just covered-up lab equipment.

The amusing incident spread like wildfire and mockery ensued, first from students and then from a wider audience.

























Meanwhile, the student still insists that there’s a Klan chapter somewhere on campus.
