According to KECI-TV and the Idaho Statesman, 12 students came to Conrad High School on horseback Monday for the joke on Principal Ramond DeBruycker.

“Montana has an old law saying if a student rides their horse to school, the school principal has to feed and tend to the horse throughout the day,” Conrad Public Schools captioned a Facebook photo of the students and their horses posing outside the school. “It looks like Mr. DeBruycker has his work cut out for him today.”

It wasn’t immediately clear whether such a law exists, the Statesman reported. Following a similar prank last year, KXLB-FM attempted but was unable to find the law.
