Not that I want to take away from Lupin's post, but today is really the last straw for me.

I play football.
It's required that all football players have 1st period weight training.
The locker room is right next to the weight room, so I get there early, dress out, and get out and wait, talk to friends, all that good stuff.

I left some beef jerky in my bag to eat after I worked out, it was nearly full.
When I got back, the jerky was gone (it was an 8 dollar bag of jerky so I am seriously p*ssed)
I had clothes on top of my bag, so you'd have to dig in my locker to find it.

This isn't the first time this has happened.
A few months ago I had my wallet stolen, I literally left it for 15 seconds to go use the bathroom, when I came back it was gone.
Cd player, money, a NECKLACE (pooka shell from the Caribbean, very sentimental - who the heck steals a cheap looking necklace?), shorts, shirts, SHOES (two pairs, and one was SUPER crappy), socks, pads, just about anything you can think of, I've had stolen.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not the only one. Everyone gets stuff stolen from them. I just haven't learned my lesson yet (well, now I have)

I want to find the jerks who have been stealing from me.

I'm going along the lines of having some tasty little treat in my bag (jerky, candy, whatever) and having it soaked in something that will make them crap their pants the rest of the day, or get them sick, not enough to kill them, just sick enough to where I know who did it.

Not 'have to go to the hospital' sick either. These guys are my team mates, and I'd never steal from them, but I don't want them to hurt too bad, just to teach them a lesson, and to know who my thieving 'friends' are.

Another idea is to smear some type of ink on the inside of the lip of the bag so you can tell who opened it or something like that.

Any ideas on what I can do to catch the little idiots?

And no, nobody hates me, or anything, everyone likes me, or at least they act like it.
 
Everyone likes you? You're in high school, right? LOL I would go with a pocket protector ;) I hate locker rooms. Things leave so easily there ;) I didn't know you were a jock when I added you... jocks scare me as I am a sloth. Or, you know, completely uncoordinated. I would also leave important things in my reg. locker. Idk if that helps.
 
Gym lockers are really little. I know most of my stuff didn't fit. Hopefully if your locker is indeed large enough, you've already considered this.

Consider other alternatives...like getting a lock.

Have one, the semester just started up and I haven't implemented my 'lock the locker' plan yet. I want to catch the people, not just keep things safe. I feel like I'm hiding when I lock my stuff up. You shouldn't HAVE to lock your stuff up, it's a TEAM. Some people don't understand that.

I want to bring these people out so everyone can see them for what they really are.

Don't you have a gym locker that you could put the stuff into?

Si, amigo.

Don't worry, I'm not one of those dumbos who don't have open minds about people. I like everyone I meet until they prove me wrong. If you're rude, then I won't like you. If you're an attention seeking yahoo running around with pants on your head trying to impress the ladies (really girls... why?) then I won't like you. The people I don't like, I still talk to a little bit, I just don't hang around them as much.

My regular locker is about... 300 yards of walking away from where I need to be, plus I just keep everything I need with me.

It's actually attached to the weight facilities... Only varsity football players get to use them. My locker is about a foot taller than I am (I'm 6'2) and about 2 times wider than me... Let's just say our school system loves us :]
 
Well, you do hardly talk to me, is this a hint!?! ;) LOL Have your other friends complained about this? If I were you I would put glitter all over my stuff and whoever had glitter hands would be naughty. Of course, I doubt you want all your crap glittery. Sticking by pocket protector ;)

Ps. I am a female. We do not like that. I work out and w/e to stay healthy, but I am not "athletic".
 
Thing is what if you do catch them and put them on front street for it what will your coach say? What if the person/persons stealing are kicked off the team?

If I turn them in to the coach they will. The head coach has 0 tolerance for thieves. We never catch them. Even then, I wouldn't turn them in, we'd take care of it ourselves.

Bahahhahaa! That's actually a good idea. I'd just put it all over the bait.

And no, that's not a hint! I just never comment people. I disappoint many a-friends through myspace : /
