Biggest crime you've ever committed?

Not the biggest but by far the most entertaining.

Let me start off by appologizing to any LSU fans. I was in
college at Auburn and went to the AU-LSU game in Baton Rouge. This was in 1993 and basketball arena (the name escapes me) was under renovation. I had been marinating since early in the morning for a night game(34-10 War Eagle!). As we made our way across campus after the game we walked by the b-ball arena. Some dumb ass cajun left it unlocked.

Myself and several of my fraternity brothers went inside, and with our dates acting as look-outs/diversions, stole "Pistol" Pete Maravich's retired number 23 from the rafters.

This was no easy task as it required climbing up to a catwalk across the roof of the arena. Once it was down, I was sure we would get caught, because it is difficult to carry a thick purple velvet banner that was roughly 10x20. It didn't exactly fold into a small package.

We were never caught and to my knowlege it is still hanging over the ceiling of a bedroom in my fraterinty house.

One of those young and stupid things I guess. I have been to several more games in Baton Rouge (no theft involved). I have always had a good time and enjoyed their fans hospitality.
