A common "prank" performed by punk kids in media (particularly during a Halloween Episode that makes mention of "Mischief Night") is throwing rotten eggs at people, their cars, or their houses. This can end up damaging peoples' property at worst, and making them smell bad at best. This is also a common bullying tactic in Korean Dramas. Typically depicted with the Toilet Paper Prank. Related to Produce Pelting, where eggs are a common choice. Do Not Try This at Home — eggs can damage property (especially car paint finishes) leading to potential arrest, criminal charges and/or civil damage claims. Compare Proj-egg-tile. |

In the ending to an episode of Gilmore Girls, Lorelai and Rory cover Jess's new car with eggs that Rory took from Sherry's baby shower. In a twist on the trope, the eggs are devilled eggs, which only confuses Jess as to who would hate him so much to prepare eggs to throw at his car. | |

The Simpsons: Virtual Bart: The second half of the Vandal level involves Bart throwing eggs at his classmates so that he'll look good in his school photo by comparison (the first half involves him throwing tomatoes). The game ends when Bart runs out of eggs (or tomatoes), time runs out, or if he hits one of the adults (though he can hit Principal Skinner while he's crouching). | |

In the That '70s Show episode "Halloween," after Kitty and Red finish reminiscing about how they found out she was pregnant with Laurie on a Halloween party, some kids, off-screen, mad that Kitty gave them raisins instead of candy, throw eggs that land on the windshield of Red's car. Red politely excuses himself from Kitty, and goes after the vandals. | |

The Simpsons At the beginning of "Treehouse of Horror II," Homer is at home watching TV and eating the candy meant for trick or treaters, when Jimbo and Kerny knock on the door. When Homer refuses to give them candy on account of their lack of costumes, they threaten to egg the house. Even after Homer gives them everything they egg the house and smash the Jack-o lanterns. In "Lisa's Date with Destiny", Nelson joins Jimbo, Dolph, and Kearney in egging Principal Skinner's house. At the end of the Easy Bake Coven segment from "Treehouse of Horror VIII", Homer eggs a house, only for Lisa to point out that it's his house! |

In the Action League NOW! episode, "Where Pigeons Dare", when the Pigeon Queen dies, The Chief assigns the Action League to protect her four eggs. Unfortunately, three out of the four eggs get broken; the first when Meltman and The Flesh play catch with them against Thundergirl's wishes, the second when Meltman and The Flesh attempt to move them into a warm house (it lands on Thundergirl), and the third when two kids steal it and attempt to throw it at a car, but miss it and hit the sidewalk. At the end of the episode, it is revealed that the eggs the League were guarding didn't belong to the Pigeon Queen at all, and the last one hatches into a snake, which eats Meltman. | |

One Robot Chicken sketch that took place in Eternia, had Skeletor rent part of his castle to some frat boys, who use it to host raging keggers on an almost nightly basis. When he finally gets fed up with them, he says that there's another fraternity that claims to party even harder, and the tenants leave for some Wacky Fratboy Hijinx, and when Prince Adam gets hit in the face by an egg, he politely tells them "we'll be right down." Later, as Skeletor sits in the office of the bank's loan officer, he chuckles when he reads an article with the headline "Fraternity Corpses Turn up in River!" | |
