: I decided I would go decked out in my Indy garb, but I was wondering about the whip. The whip I think is an essential part of the whole look but I am afraid I would be branded as bringing a weapon to school and they would call the swat team, throw me in jail for 10+ years. My whip is based on a 5 foot horse whip which was just a long leather strap nailed to a stick. I modified it by cutting the 20" handle down to 10" and wraped it in leather to cover the wood and make it look better. I extended the over all length from 5' to 8' by tieing leather straps to it. A thin strip of buck skin tied to the tip makes a good craker. My whip is light and if I beat someone with it it wouldnt leave a mark. It would be like swating someone with a hat ribbon. It can make loud though. I whould probably talk to a teacher or someone about it. What do you guys think though?

: P.S. I have enough sense to leave the toy revolver at home.
I say let a teacher or somebody in authority know beforehand and bring the whip. Have a good time!
