April Fools Day is great! I think we all can agree. It’s the one day of the year you get to play pranks on the unsuspecting and not be held accountable for your poor taste.

Classic pranks that work flawlessly almost every time and are usually only funny to the prank-er not the prank-ee. Hey, at least someone’s laughing!
In years gone by the stakes have been raised and the pranks keep getting grander and grander.
