This one time I started this rumor about Barry Sanders wanting to retire.

In the mid 80's we had a service advisor that had a dead Healy in the back of the shop. He was convinced it was a puff when in fact it was a roach.

Anyway, We had this display dummy battery that was an empty shell and the case had a crack in the side.............

So, we filled it with water and set it in the middle of the hood....

You can imagine what appeared to be happening with water leaking out the side and running all the way down the hood.......

Back in the day I installed windows for a contractor before I got my own license. We would install the sliding windows correctly with the weep holes on the bottom, peel the manufacturer's stickers off the glass on half of the windows so we could reapply them upside down. Sliders don't slide when installed upside down and they don't drain either. The stickers are always placed to read right side up and we'd get the homeowner in on the joke. At the end of a long day, the contractor would show up and see the windows with the inverted stickers thinking we'd installed them upside down. You could see the hundred dollar bills flying out of his wallet from the expression on his face. The homeowner would then ask him what the problem was at which point he'd tell us to start tearing them out to rehang them correctly. This was the cue for the homeowner to go into meltdown mode. We did this twice to the same contractor and probably took 5 years off his life before he figured out that we were yanking his chain. The homeowners loved it because they felt that they were getting some entertainment out of their investment.

I was working second shift in these offices. down the hall there was a dumpster outside of a photolab so I picked a picture of 4 people out off it. (bring your own for this prak it would be easier.) Anyway I took a magnet and put it on omeone filingcabinet on their desk. When the boss came by we desided to call in for a pizza, so we went to the desk. as my coworker got on the phone and the boss was watching I decided to put Kiss Makeup on the 4 people in the picture.

He was a little upset, then I added a little icing to it. I pulled it off and told him it would wipe right off. Then as I rub my thumb on the per marker and it doesn't com off I started to get scared.

I told him later it was a joke. I did it to the caretaker too. I had to tell him fast since I thought he was going to have a heart attack.

One time my wife went out to the car to get something and was trying to use the remote to unlock. I was hiding with my remote. Every time she unlocked the doors I locked them. It must have gone on for nearly 5 minutes.

Wasn't april fools, but ranks as one of the better ones for me. I lived in a gated community near Detroit when I worked for GM. My g/f came to visit. By happenstance I drove a prototype supercharged Fiero home and on the way in the swinging arm gate noticed that it would fit under the gate by maybe an inch or so.

On the way out for dinner later, the gate is at the end of about a quarter mile straight drive. I'd been setting her up by mentioning the car was fast, yes, but the amazing thing was how strong the brakes were. So I floored it heading to the gate - probably 60 ish - and just when you'd expect to be the last second to start braking I briefly lifted and then floored it under the gate. She was very smart and level headed, but I scared her so bad she peed her pants and was kinda shaken the rest of the evening. Heck, I was kinda scared as that steel arm looked like it was going to come through the windshield.

I work for UPS and I had a customer acting as a police officer call my supervisor and tell him I was in a head on collision with a drunk driver and I was on my way to Valley Medical(hospital) in critical condition. He (customer) explained to my suppervisor that it was not my fault, the driver of the vehicle had crosed the line into oncoming traffic doing approx. 50 mh.and hit me head on. My suppervisor asked how bad I was injured and he told him that I went through the windshield breaking both legs and that I had lost alot of blood. After about 2 minutes of this he(customer) told me that they were looking for my parents number and that's when I got on the phone and told my sup. April fools.All I heard was you mother fusher rashin biter lasher frasher and the phone hung up violently. When I got back to the building that night the supervisor had left for the day, all the other sups laughed ,they also told me how pissed off he was. The next morning he asked to talk with me and proceeded to tell me he was going to seek disaplinary action then he told me that when he went home he told his wife and she laughed and told him it was just a joke and to take it as that. I have played many jokes on people but that was the best.

Myself having a close friend who was killed in a head on collision, I'm with him- I don't see the humor.

My sister's BF did this to her- called her up and said he was in a car accident, in the hospital, etc- she was putting on her shoes to go see him when he walked through the door, laughing. She almost put him in the hosipital after that.

I dunno, maybe I am getting old or something, but I really don't see the humor in that one.
