A high school in Oklahoma is under investigation after a viral video shows students licking and sucking another participant’s toes at a school-sanctioned event.
The Post reports, Deer Creek High School held a fundraiser inside the institutions gym. At least four teens laid on their stomaches as they vigorously ate peanut butter off of another participant’s bare feet. It is unclear if the other party adorning the peanut were students or adults.

In the disturbing video, students can be heard cheering as the kids used their mouths to remove the peanut butter.
Additionally, one student in the background says, “He is devouring those!” Moreover, a moderator can be heard hyping up the crowd and contestants.
A Bad Idea For A Good Cause
The incident occurred on Thursday at the school’s ‘Clash of Classes’ assembly. According to the Deer Creek School District, the event was one of several during the week designed to raise money for a local coffee shop that hires people with special needs.
The toe-sucking tournament was an event that students paid to attend. Teenagers grades 9th through 12th volunteered to participate in the activities.
Initially, administrators were down with the vomit-worthy contest and praised students for their participation in the ‘Wonderful Week’ of fundraising. The student body raised a total of $152,830.38. But after the peanut butter hit the fan, they apologized to its students and parents.

In a statement to The Post, the school district said, “There is a video circulating on social media of one of the activities that involves students only during this assembly that has, unfortunately, gained national attention.”
“We want to stress to our community that much of the information accompanying this video is inaccurate. However, through this specific game we failed to uphold the dignity of our students and the proud image of our community. We have a responsibility to protect our Antlers and showcase them in a positive light. In regards to this one particular activity, we fell short and for that we greatly apologize.”
Furthermore, the school district stated, “Thank you for standing with us and helping us to weather this storm and move forward together.”
Texas Senator Ted Cruz categorized the competition as “child abuse” on X, to which Walters responded, “Completely agree. We are stopping this in Oklahoma.”
