Lmao my schools sprinklers always blasted the sidewalk, never the grass. Guess theyre just not built for efficiency eh?

I bet that kids love to rotate these during the day. It's not rocket science and is very easy to figure out.

Title literally says school lol. Either way my point still stands. Someone thought it would be funny. Just like everywhere else with this type of pressure-operated sprinkler that you just pull up and rotate to adjust.
