Best vehicular pranks

[Whitmore]

take a 1 gal milk carton and fill it with oxygen and acceteline and then cut a hole in the lid to put a spark plug in it... ... ... ... ... ... ... . put this in the engine compartment of an enemys rig and put one of his plug wires on it :{

That sounds damaging Whitmore.



A fairly large girl drove a little Ford Festiva. One Friday night, she left it parked at the local store we would hang out at and she went off with some friends. Right next to where she was parked, there were 2 poles for the stores sign. They were just far enough apart for the Festiva to fit. Several of us picked the car up and walked it over between the poles. We set it down with the poles right at the door handles so she couldn't open the doors. Unfortunately, it was around 3:00am when we left so we didn't get to watch her big azz climb through the hatch to get to the front seat. Then again, it may be a good thing we didn't see that big azz.

A big joke around the shop for a while was to take a piece of cardboard, write something on it (Gay Pride, Gay Driver and Proud of it, Honk if you ... ... , etc. ) and tie it under the rear bumper of someone's car so when they drove off, the sign would fall out and everyone behind could see.

another fun one

get a coupl of cardboard pieses and carve them to fit the outline of the headlites then put a 1 " hole in the middle so the lite can shine thru, tape them to a buddies headlites with some double stick tape. When your buddie turns his headlites on he will be wonderin what the hey is goin on ... ... ... ... ... ..... very fun to watch as they turn the headlites on and off... ... ... ... ... ... . go figger, Kevin

First let me say that no harm was done to the animal involved



A friend and I found a scorpion earlier in the day and took it to work. My boss wanted me to get something out of his truck. So I grabbed my Big Gulp and walked out to his truck. Inside the Big Gulp cup was the scorpion, and as my boss looked on I kinda jumped back then pretend that I was trying to catch something inside his truck. I walked up to the boss and shown him what I found inside his truck. Now I did not know it but he was very afraid of scorpions. He had me look for more, and of course I did not see any.



The general managers son came by the shop later in the day. He is going to UNLV for biology and I let him on the prank. He tells Mike that it was a female and that it had just laid some eggs and he should have about 100 baby scorpions in his truck within a week. I had to walk off because the look Mike gave almost had me laughing right there.



Good thing he had an old truck because later that night he had his wife bring over a "Bug Bomb" and set it off in his truck. The next day I come to work and see Mike working on his truck. He already had his seats and carpet out and was taking off his door panels. That truck went though a good clean job that week. The general manager told us not to tell him that it was just a prank, so we just let take its course.



That truck sat there for two weeks before the GM told Mike it was only a joke. I will say this for Mike, he took it really well and he laughed the most. We had so much fun at that shop. Pranks were played on everyone there on a weekly bases. We kept the scorpion for well over a year till one morning we came in and the ants got to him. Mike had tears in his eyes when he found out the scorpion was dead.

I don't know if this was a prank, but I'll bet it was. .



One day a guy pulled up at the gas station I worked at and asked to borrow a broom. While I watched to see what he was up to, he opened all the doors on his car and started beating the crap out of the interior. Come to find out, there was a rat in there. He said he was driving along when he looked down and there was the fat rat staring at him.

I filled the bosses pick-up bed with styrofoam peanuts once.

this only works on gassers, put a tdc whistle in place of the o2 sensor. drives them nuts looking for the noise.

 

[nickleinonen]

also for the mean folk... . mono high expanding foam... spray that in the exhaust and watch the fun it causes... if you spray it close to the end of the tail pipe, spray some black [flat] paint on it to cover the yellowey color... a "friend" did that to a ricer that buzzes around my area with a glasspack going like 100 kph in a 40 kph zone. . the ricer had a home brew ram air made from the white vinyl dryer ducting. he filled that up and filled up the glasspack. he doesn't buzz around here anymore [thank god!!! one other ricer around here hit someone going like 80 kph and paralized them. . ]

Working hard

We had a boss that would always sneak up on us and try to bust us taking a break or goofing off. He would also drive like a maniac to and from the job site. One day he was being paticulary obnoixus and the guys decided to play a joke on him. They had found a small bull snake earlier that day and one of them was going to take it home for his kids. Well, I told him we would find another and took small bull snake to the propane tank and froze him. Somebody put him above the visor on the bosses truck about ten minutes before quitting time (Not me Honest!). . He jumped in his truck and flew down the dirt road ahead of us, we followed at a high rate of speed. After about three or four miles the road came to a tee, at that point his truck continued on through the bar ditch and out into the prarie! Finally coming to a stop in a cloud of dust and with the boss exiting the truck in a HURRY. He was going to fire us all until he found it was a Bull snake and NOT the killer rattler he thought at first came to life and fell on his lap!

I sure hope the statute of limitations is over on this one! In my senior year of high school (1987) the head principal was driving a pristine VW bug. I had several friends that had bugs that we had beat the tar out of (like the one we put a rounded roll cage into so we could roll it on demand off road ) - which we had torn apart and back together many times. We decided to put it on the roof of the school. We dismantled it into pieces small enough that we were able to haul it onto the roof and reassembled it up there - which took about 2 hours, since we had plenty of experience tearing them apart in the past. He came out of the office area and didn't see his car, walked over to the teachers parking area and didn't find it there either, then started walking back towards the building whereupon he saw it on the roof right above his office! They questioned the entire school and amazingly enough the few that knew those of us that perpetraited (sp?) the gag didn't fess up. They hired a crane at some ungodly sum to take it off the roof. The funniest part is that is took them 2 times the amount of time to setup the crane, get the car off the roof and then tear down the crane than it did for us to disassemble the car and haul it up in pieces and put it back together! Ahhhhhhh, the joy of youth!!!!

At UPS we take a small styro coffee cup and fill it with some water. You take it and put it on the small ledge above the drivers windshield in the cab of the package car. When your un-suspecting "buddy" pulls out forward, the cup comes down and usually wets his crotch. You kinda have to watch who you do this to around there... people are kind of tense in the AM.

I worked at a gas plant and one guy did not like his neighbor.

To get at the neighbor the coworker go a small amount of mercapatin(stinko)smells like a skunk,and poured a small amount in the guys car,and down the cowl. The smell could not be removed. The guy tore the car apart trying to find where the smell was coming from.

One of our favorites at work is to wait for the parts delivery girls to show up in a little pickup and when shes inside delivering the parts unlatch the tailgate but leave it in the up position. When she backs away from the shop and hits the brakes to change directions "BAM" the tailgate falls and she thinks she ran into something. You can tell the vets, they check before they get back in the truck.

One of the meanest ones I was ever involved in was when I was in high school in Ohio. We heated a can of STP with a propane torch and poured it over the principals windshield in the dead of winter.

When I worked in the oilfield the oldtimers would catch rattlesnakes and put them in eachothers across the bed tool boxes. :--) :--) :--)

When I was a Jr. in High School, the girl I asked to the Prom, was already taken-----by a prissy kid from a family with money and with a new Ford convertible. While they were at the prom. , I smeared Limburger cheese all over the exhaust manifold and crossed a couple spark plug wires.



Heard later they did not have a happy time going out for the traditional after prom dinner.

Not one of my finer moments; I was really bent out of shape at the time.

Hey Whitmore, be careful with this one---with the proper mix your 1 gallon milk jug would remove/destroy the hood, probably take out the windshield, and cause considerably expensive other damage!!!

I once put an ad in the news paper saying "Harley's parts for sale cheap. I have hundreads of older Hog parts laying around and its now time to sale dirt cheap. Sunday morning starting at 6:30 AM. First come first serve" Then I gave my boss's address.



He said there were hundreds of bikers at his house and they started to get there at 5:00 am. He never figured out what happend.

When I worked in a mechanics shop, My buddy and I pulled one of the others mechanics coil wire. We then parked about 2 rows over and watched the fun. He tried to start his old car and then open the hood to find out the coil wire was removed. He was ****** and started looking around the parking lot.

My buddy and I were laughing hysterically. We did pull up five minutes later and threw the coil wire to him and left the paking lot very fast. I got my just due later in the week with my coil and 1 spark plug wire rearranged! The good old days.....

 

[lgibson]

Rotty, next time replace his coil wire with a piece of vacuum line with the boots on the end. He will take a while for him to figure that one out.
