On September 3, 2025, a frightening TikTok account was created. The account, mysteriously named “the.uwl.pisser,” has posted several videos of the unnamed owner of the account seemingly urinating, or “pissing,” on or in several different structures around the campus of the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. Affected areas so far include the Hoeschler Tower, Coate Hall and the Eagle Fest sign.
Now, it seems that the UWL Pisser has their sights set on something, or someone, that makes up the very fabric of the university: Chancellor James Beeby. When he first moved to La Crosse, the Chancellor was excited to work with students and faculty in a safe and quiet area of the state. In the terrifying wake of the UWL Pisser, The Acorn has received reports of Chancellor Beeby living in a “constant hellstate of fear.”
“[Chancellor] James [Beeby] is walking around scared…he hasn’t worn nice shoes in days. Whenever he uses the restroom, he makes everyone else leave, even if they aren’t done,” says one UWL staff member. “He’s not taking any chances. He locks himself in his office for hours at a time. The bottom line is he’s very, very afraid.”
While authorities are currently short on leads in regard to the identity of the UWL Pisser, they have been working with a different TikTok account dedicated to catching the Pisser, “uwl.pisser.hunter,” in hopes of ending their urinary reign of terror.
“Working with the Pisser Hunter, we’ve been able to secure a potential name for the Pisser: I.P. Freely,” said the University Police Department. “We’re making progress on validating that identity, but we have a warm feeling about this lead.”
Similar TikTok accounts have popped up on the app, including ones for UW-Milwaukee, UW-Madison and UW-Eau Claire. While university authorities are working on catching the UWL Pisser, they are even more worried about a potential copycat situation arising, where a so-called “UWL Shitter” would take inspired action on campus.
If you have any leads or information about the UWL Pisser’s identity or where they might next mark their territory, please contact the University Police Department.
