Austin Burley (left), 16, of Duluth celebrates after pulling a chair away from his friend Derek Huston, 15, of Duluth, who was duct taped to the wall at Lincoln Park Middle School in Duluth on Saturday. The Denfeld students were at the school for the Section 6A swimming finals. This is the second time they attempted to tape Huston to the wall for fun. The first attempt failed because they bought the cheapest duct tape they could. This time they spent $20 for three 60-yard rolls of high- strength duct tape. Huston remarked, “This was $20 well-spent.” Friends used markers to create artwork and write messages to Derek. (Clint Austin / caustin@duluthnews.com)
