Practical Jokes
Jake has been the but of many practical jokes at Duval College. A facebook group has been set up by fellow students of Duval College to coordinate the practical joking. The most notable jokes played on Jake are the "Plastic Cup Joke" and the "UNE VIBE Joke".

The Plastic Cup Joke involved covering the floor of Jakes college room with plastic cups filled with water. The work "Jake" was spelled out in the cups using red cordial. In total 40 litres of water was used.

The UNE VIBE Joke was a collaboration of 60 students constantly entering 'jakefoley' into the UNE VIBE until his name was clearly visible. The UNE VIBE is an online sharing device for UNE student to share their thoughts; the students thoughts are then added to a rotating sphere of words with the most commonly added words in large bold print and lesser words in small print. Jakes name was added enough that in only a few days it was the second biggest word. Jake's reaction to seeing his name was highly amusing and a video placed on the facebook page. The addition of Jakes name to the vibe prompted others students unaware of Jake to share whoisjakefoley on the vibe.
