Good April Fool's Day Pranks?

[rbattelle]

Anyone have any good (non-harmful) April Fool's pranks you've played on someone/had played on you? I need some ideas.



Last year, my truck was 4 days old on 1 April. A friend had some guy I never met call me at work and tell me that he parked next to me and when he opened his door the wind ripped it out of his hands and it put a huge dent/gash in my truck. It was like getting kicked you-know-where. I was blinded with pain/rage. After going out of my skull for 30 minutes, the guy shows up to give me his insurance information, which was a note that read "Happy April Fool's Day". :{ :-laf

I don't know if you can find it by doing a search, but there was a topic on this forum about a year ago (maybe two) that was all about practical jokes members have played on co-workers, etc. It was a hilarious thread.

One that I remember: a guy caught a scorpion and then went to a buddy's truck for some legitimate purpose while holding a drink cup with the scorpion inside. He then acted like he was panicking in the truck and came in and told the guy that he caught a scorpion in his truck and showed it to him in the cup. He told the guy, "It's a female and it looks like it just laid its eggs. "

Anybody remember that thread?

I was the one that did that scorpion prank. The General Manager's son, who was a biologist, told Mike it was a female and it just laid it's eggs.



Another good one was I put an add in the paper advertising "cheap Harley parts, First come first serve starting at 630 am Saturday morning". Then listing my bosses address as the place to go.



You can also get some clear or lemon gelatin and put in the toilet. It needs to sit a little while to harden, so add it in at closing time. The next morning when someone goes to do the #2 their turd is sitting on top of a jiggling water.

A few years ago, one of the maintenance guys was promoted to foreman of the dept. and of course the job went to his head big time. Another one of the guys put an ad in the local want-ad book to sell his 1 yr. old Dodge 4X4 p/u with the "cranium cab" option for $8995. To this day, we don't know how many calls he got for the cranium cab Dodge.

LOL! The gelatin in the toilet is fantastic!! My brother is going to be a great victim of that one!! But, how does the victim correct the problem? I've heard of using Saran wrap over the toilet bowl but turning the water into gelatin is awesome.

I didn't do anything, but the country station I was listening to for a while, decided to play a couple of Christmas songs.

Just flush the toilet. Gelatin will not do any harm at all.

I was close to having the story correct. I thought your prank was a classic!



Another one I remember from that topic was my buddy John Treibel (a machinist) put "Prussian blue" dye on the nose bridge and temples of a co-worker's safety glasses. A little while later he looked at the guy and his nose was blue and he had blue sideburns! The guy got back at John by turning off the lights in the potty while John was in a stall and chucking a lit firecracker under the stall door. LOL!

The best long term prank I ever pulled. A guy at work bought a Mazda midwinter for the fuel economy. everyday after he pulled out of the yard we added a half gallon of fuel to his tank. We asked how his mileage was and he said" you won't believe this but I'm getting 45 miles per gallon" We told him enjoy it now cause when you start using the A/C with that puny engine the mileage will suck. So come summer,yup you guessed it we started siphoning out 1/2 gallon a day. He was alomost in tears when he said his mileage had dropped to to about 12.

This is an old, not-too-sophistiacted one, but it still seems to work! Place regular old Christmas tree tinsel on any glass surface (truck windshield, picture window etc), and it looks EXACTLY like it's cracked! My nephew pulled this one several years ago on my brothers brand-new grandfather clock... He was about ready to go ballistic when he first saw it! :-laf :-laf :-laf
