For a normal university student, this time of the year is probably the most stressful time of the year; however, the members of UW Entertainers have found a way to amuse themselves despite being amid finals. UW Entertainers decided to send one of their agents into a sociology exam in a religious chicken suit to frustrate the professors of [University of Waterloo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wifi-device-1) and to entertain their [fellow students](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unstag).

Although the UW Entertainers only started their channel very recently, their [exam prank](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scratch-reveal) has already been viewed thousands of times -- and there are more videos to come.
