haagm58 · 04-01-2020, 08:21 AM

Happy April Fool's Day, everyone. Watch yourselves today.

What's the best April Fool's Day prank you've seen or experienced during COVID-19 social isolation?

Videos and pictures will be appreciated! We could all use some comic relief right now.

First, thanks for the reminder that it is the greatest holiday of all - almost forgot with all the quarantine BS.

The old saran-wrap-on-the-toilet is a classic that would only be improved upon by being locked into the dwelling with the person you did it to....

(I'm still working from work, so I can contemplate such suicidal hijinks).

Run down the hallways naked yelling, "I got the Rona!"

As the WH is about to recommend face masks for all, I'm considering wearing my biking balaclava for our Teams meeting today.

Your own, or did you borrow one from a friend?

Melted Baby Ruth bar placed in an inconvenient spot.

Debating telling my parents that my fiance is pregnant as a joke via text, not sure how pissed they would be after I say April Fools though lol.

Not really Rona related but a few years ago I was working an airshow, April fools was the 5th or 6th day of the show. We all get a little crazy that deep into a show. One of the guys in the booth across from ours started stretching and then took off running yelling "GARY!!!!!" at the top of his lungs. He did a lap around the hangar before a security guy started chasing him... he went out of the building and came back in the other side where a different security guard jumped out an tripped him up, he was still yelling "Gary" at this point. Dude slid on the concrete floor for like 25 feet and was then escorted out. I didn't see him back the next year but it was a great "prank."

It would be a good test of your parents' feelings toward her and your relationship

Ok that's pretty funny. Speaking of week long airshows...was this in Oshkosh, WI at the EAA? The backyard of my childhood home looked onto the airfield.

This was sun and fun in Florida. I work both of them.

The only one that I have seen so far is on a club email list, where someone sent a group happy birthday email out to the president and everyone started piling on with their own salutations.....
