FAYETTEVILLE -- The electronic billboard message in front of one Sandhills school had drivers making U-turns and media calling Board members Tuesday afternoon.



The Fayetteville Academy's billboard read "Fayetteville Academy for sale 20.15 million," followed by a second message describing the building's assets, including "2 large gyms and cafeteria, 96 rooms/22 baths and adequate parking."



A third message later pops up saying "Pranked by the Class of 2015!!!!"
