Iowa and Illinois High Schools Hit by P.Diddy Prank, Inappropriate Names Appear on Google Maps

Schools across Iowa and Illinois are facing a bizarre prank: their names on Google Maps have been altered to inappropriate yet humorous titles. And, strangely enough, Sean "P.Diddy" Combs seems to be at the center of the joke.

Local High Schools Targeted in Google Maps Prank, With Sean "P.Diddy" Combs at the Center of the Joke

Recently, P.Diddy has been in the spotlight due to ongoing legal disputes and controversies surrounding his business dealings and personal life. Though details are still emerging, it seems like his tumultuous headlines have inspired a mischievous reaction from students in the Quad Cities.

The prank involves changing the names of several high schools on Google Maps, and to add to the confusion, marking them as “permanently closed.” While it's unclear whether this is part of a wider internet trend or just a series of dumb pranks, the inappropriate name changes have quickly drawn attention.

Some of the altered school names include:

• Weiner Davenport High School (formerly Davenport West)
• Sherrard Diddy Junior/Senior High School (formerly Sherrard High School)
• Become The Diddler High School (formerly Moline High School)
• Pleasant Valley BOP High School (formerly Pleasant Valley High School)
  (Note: “BOP” is a slang term for a promiscuous person.)
• Rock Diddy High School (formerly Rock Island High School)
• United Diddyship High School (formerly United Township)
• John Deere Diddy School (formerly John Deere Middle School)
• Monmouth Diddyville High School (formerly Monmouth Roseville School)
• Peoria Baby Oil High School (formerly Peoria High School)

Many schools have had their name changed more than once. For example, this school in East Moline:

• United Nip and Tuck High School
• United Diddy Sungeon 
• United Baby Oil High School
• United THOT High School

Further away, near Lake Michigan, the prank has spread with schools bearing names like:

• Diddy High School
• Diddy Hawk Tuah Lake Central High School
• Free Diddy High School
• Finna Hawk Tuah on Diddy High School

Why Are The Names Being Changed?

While these changes have brought amusement to some, local school officials are working to get the names corrected. Whether this is part of a TikTok trend, a response to P.Diddy's recent media coverage, or simply a random act of mischief remains unknown. For now, local schools can only hope the prank subsides soon, as they work with Google to restore their real identities.

For now, it remains a mystery: Are these pranksters making a statement, or just having fun at Diddy's expense? Either way, they’ve certainly left an impression on the local community.
