Students woke up Monday morning to find a makeshift pirate ship with a Lime scooter on it floating in Lake Ruby.

The scooter was found on an orange raft anchored in the middle of the lake with a small Georgia Southern University flag flying from its handlebars.

This is not the first incident involving Lime products, as one involved a bike in a tree and another a scooter on top of the Carroll building.

Barstool Southern tweeted out a video about the Lime scooter on top of Carroll. Warning: Profanity is used in this tweet.

Students were understandably confused by the lake’s newest decoration.

“That’s crazy,” Adley Branch, freshman nursing major, said. “I don’t know how they got that out there. That’s weird.”

There was also some enthusiasm surrounding the incident.

“I fully support it,” Reese Butzy, freshman mechanical engineering major, said.

The scooter has been floating on the lake all morning, and it is unclear how long it will remain.
