My favorite was copying a paperclip and putting the paper back into the paper tray on a printer, and watching the other people trying to figure out where the paper clip is stuck in the machine.

No harm no foul kinda prank.


Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

My Mom was telling me about how the Geese were becoming a problem in the city park, so I got up before light and filled her front yard with decoy's and hid in bushes blowing a Goose call till she came out in robe and hair curlers with some bread trying to feed them. She was whizzed, but got over it. Eventually.

there was one a few years back when racoon prices were < 75$ each...not what was on the table
That NAFA had lost a shipment..........well the squeeling pigs on here
The phone lines blew up at all the agents places and the main line went down in Toronto all 500 lines
as the story progressed;
seems it was only one bag that blew out on a delivery truck coming from Saskatchewan, but still 800$ worth
thus forward those guys that pick up bottles in the ditches have what is called now "Traplines" and you better not poach on them.
the bag was never recovered, but producer was paid

Loaded a coworkers cigarette with gun powder, replaced the top 1/4" of tobacco. Looked like he had a rocket hanging off his lip. 45 years ago. Boy those were the good old days.

We put comic book loads in our mom's cigarette and it blew up. We were laughing so hard we could not run away.

3 minutes, 24 seconds in is a great prank to play on an ADC business.

Once when I was probably 11 or 12 I decided I really wanted to play a trick on the old man for April Fools. I couldn't come up with anything but somehow found myself over at my uncles house the day before. I mentioned my dilemma to him and he proceeded over to his cat's litter box and plucked a fresh turd out with a baggie and said here do something with this. Of course at that age I didn't have the sense to realize this already may be going too far so I grabbed that dook and headed for the house. The next morning I got up before dad and I placed the goods right inside his deck shoes he always wore (with no socks). I sat on the couch near the shoes and waited patiently. I heard him get up and then start his daily weekend routine which was take a shower and then head down to the local carry out to get his coffee, shoot the breeze with the owner, and grab a paper. I heard that bathroom door open and I knew the moment was upon me. He walked out to the living room sockless as usual, and mumbled good morning. I'll never forget that moment when I watched his right foot go up in the air destined for that shoe like it was in slow motion. As soon as he sunk his foot in there he said "what the".... and pulled his foot back out. By this time I had moved to the edge of the couch quiet as a mouse. And in that moment he reached his shoe up to his nose for a whiff, and I saw that bewilderment in his eyes, mainly because we didn't even have a cat so clearly the source of the turd was a mystery. But in that moment I went from a feeling of about to laugh my butt off to I'm dead. Realizing my inevitable fate should I decide to stick around for the final chapter of the old man figuring the source of the turd I jumped up off that couch and flew past the old man like my pants were on fire. I headed straight for the only room in the house with a lock on the door, the bathroom. He was hot on my heels and I made it just in the nick of time. The sound of all the commotion woke mom up as he was about to kick that door in and she came out of the bedroom hollering away as she was just as confused as to how a cat turd from a cat that doesn't exist winds up in the old man's shoe and why he's ready to kill his only son. She talked him off the ledge eventually but just to be safe I didn't come out of that bathroom for what seemed like hours lol. And that was the one time I played a prank on dad. The wife and I got the kids really well last year but that's another long story that I'm sure nobody has time for! But it was a good one too.

Put those adhesive floor tiles sticky side up next to bed on a buddy's side of the bed...... he couldn't run to catch me either.........


A goose may honk....but he won't wave

I would buy a dozen doughnuts for the guys at NAPA every once in a while. Walked in with a box and set it on the counter. Looked at them and said I'm getting mine first. Reached in and got one and started eating it. Closed it back up and stood back. Steve comes over a few moments later to get one. When he opens it he starts a laughing. They said what's wrong? He pulls out a paper with April Fools on it. To this day they still remind me about it whenever I bring a dozen in. I did go out to my truck and got their dozen donuts to enjoy.

Trap Setter, thanks for the idea. I pulled this one off this morning and it worked great. I'm always the first one in the office so I made 20 copies with 3 paper clips laid on scanner. Placed the copies back in the paper drawer with some good sheets mixed in. It had my boss going crazy as luck would have it everything he printed had the paper clips on it but others that printed had regular sheets.

Not an April Fools joke but BOCO was indeed spotted
Taking fur up to the Groeny Rat Wagon truck in Amish country
in Lancaster County, P.A. to sell green, frozen beaver & otter.
