A computer science student at Rice University in Houston, Texas caught the attention of U.S. Customs this year by requesting a dorm room full of balls.

When U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials learned that David Nichol had imported 26 large boxes containing 13,000 plastic colored balls from China, they felt the need to investigate.

Turns out David just wanted to enjoy a classic ball pit, much like the ones at Chuck E. Cheese's or old school McDonald's, in his dorm room for senior year. The university voted to let him keep his ball pit. Unfortunately, two of his posted rules include no making out and no peeing, so we're fairly positive he's not using it properly (to get laid.)
