I think everyone knows a prankster, or maybe its us. What has been the most entertaining or humorous practical joke you have witnessed or been a part of.
in college we had a secret santa going on. every night you'd leave a gift outside the person's door. My roommate and I decided to become the prank santa - in addition to our own santa gifts - we would put really crappy gifts (like ketchup packets) at a different persons room every night. Then we would be sitting around w/ people and be like "did you hear about the prank Santa?" It was hilarious.
The second one, I was in the bathroom at college (it had multiple stalls) and it was high traffic time. And I had this stuff called Flubber - that makes fart noises (a guy who was trying to win my heart gave it to me) - I sat in the stall making fart noises. It was so funny people were trying not to say anything.
So many stories, so little space! We really do need to have a FFR member gathering so we can swap all our tales.
Here's my favorite prank of many. My daughters and I were involved in a Dad/Daughter group that does a lot of camping. Our group was known for picking a rival group, slapping on the camoflauge clothes, and heading out in the middle of the night with our weapon of choice. Water balloons! Launched from one of those two-man sling shots, you can really send off a salvo! Over 6 years in the group, everyone knew it was us, but we never got caught in the act. Stealth and planning, those are the keys!
When I was a kid (I don't think I could've been more than 10), my grandma bought me some of those things that they have around the 4th of July that you throw or step on and they make a popping sound. I put most of the box of those right in front of the back door. I am so surprised I didn't give my grandma a heart attack. To this day, I still like to get those pull string poppers and tie one end to the door frame and the other end to the door...
I stole my friends car. Not just his car but his dad's company car! It was a spur-of the- moment thing. I was in high school and driving around with my brother and another friend when oppotunity knocked. My friend Gregg was driving his date home when we happened to see him. We decided to follow them and watch what happened when he said good night to his date. As we approached I jumped out of the car and ran to his car as he was on the front porch of his dates house. I noticed he left the car running. I ran back to our car and told the guys I'm taking Gregg's car. I ran back and waited. When Gregg and his date kissed I slowly opened the door, jumped in and put the car in reverse and drove away. I looked in the rear view mirror to see Gregg chasing the car, knees and elbows flying. When I met up with my brother and friend we laughed our a**es off...until we realized he probably would call the police. After discussing what we should do we decided to return the car. We drove it back I jumped out and jumped in our car and drove away. The next day Gregg told us what happened to him. We didn't tell him for months we did it. He didn't believe us until we described everything that happened. To this day is dad doesn't know we did it.
When we were kids my Grandma had a big pine tree that the branches went all the way to the ground. We used to tie a purse to a fishing line and throw it into the middle of the road and hide under the tree. Cars would litteraly screech there tires to stop. When they started to back up we would reel it in real quick and they would get out to grab it and it would be gone. Just the look on their faces was great.
