A fake boarding school that wanted to be a high school football powerhouse??! What could go wrong?

This week, journalist and Caity’s husband Allen Arthur brings a scam hot off the ESPN broadcast! That’s right, even Disney can get in the scam game. Allen covers the fraudulent school and sports program, Bishop Sycamore. He'll talk about the fake school's distant connection to a real church, how many helmets they had (not enough), and the bounced checks to hotels the kids were put up in.

This insane scam might have gone mostly unnoticed if BS hadn't flown too close to the sun and played on ESPN. The game was so unevenly matched that announcers and viewers began to question if Bishop Sycamore even had a full team. Spoiler alert: they didn’t!
