Soup-can ambush

(noun) Nighttime outing and fundraising attempt mainly practiced at the collegiate level by the criminally eccentric type young men almost always of which are of the troublemaker persuasion, with diminished financial opportunities wherein they procure, meaning probably steal several cans of soup—bigger the can the bigger the crack—and these implements are then placed in a pillowcase (also probably stolen). The future felon then takes this crude get-rich-quick device with them out into the night on campus. The hopeful attacker then crouches or lurks in the shadows of campus, oftentimes a parking is preferable, and when he locates a target worthy of dispatching the attacker then springs on their victim striking them with a vicious and powerful blow to the victim’s head with the pillowcase of soup cans. Like gravity the victims falls bleeding and unconscious from the blow. The enterprising bludgeoner then fleeces and rifles through the victim’s person, relieving their victim of any and all monies and valuables of which can be hocked or traded oftentimes for drugs and such.
