toilet papering a house

I am just looking for opinions here because my 13 year old daughter thinks I am to old to understand, and I have no idea what I am talking about. I do believe I will become smart again in about 5 or so more years. But til then I just bite the bullet and wait for my brains to reappear.
Our house got toilet papered last Friday night, oddly enough it was Friday the 13th. Mallory's friends, a group of boys and girls, used 43 rolls of tp, so you can only imagine the mess. We have 2 really tall trees in the front and they got it all the way to the top.
I told Mal it is done in fun and only to kids who are well liked or if a boy has a crush on you. She was so hurt and upset that these kids would do this to her, she almost had a meltdown. Everyone we know has had it done to them and more then once.
Mallory wasn't even home that night so I made the kids come back the next day and clean it up. Since it was my birthday and Mal wasn't home, I certainly wasn't going to do it.
I am curious about what you guys think about tp'ing a house, or is this just a California thing?
