My personal best practical joke--ever!!!!!!!!!

[Doubleclutch]

I grewup in a small rural town in Fl and you know. We played some great ones but here's the best.

For awhile we frequented a bar that was so far out we could get served even though we were underage. We hung there drank and went home at closing hour in the middle of the night. There was a shortcut home out into the farm roads that we always used.

One night out there we swung a turn and there was a white mule tied to a tree --he was out at the end of his tether reaching for more grass. We slipped his rope and continued on our way.

A few nights later same trick different tree for fresh grass.

A few nights later all the same --BUT-- we found he was chained with locks around the tree and his neck!! My buddy who was from a farming family gleefully pulled a two man crosscut saw from his trunk and with 4 guys (two on each end) we took down a 40 foot pine. I recall the several minutes that it took to get the pulling coordinated as we had been "OVERSERVED" AGAIN THAT NIGHT. Anyway the tree came down without hurting us or the mule, we lifted the chain off the stump and never went back.


My second best was a public assination complete with a 4 door Packard and wax instead of lead in the bullets. OH THOSE WERE THE DAYS!


Whats your BEST?

Ha Ha...
Good stuff..
A "WHITE" Mule huh? That must have been a good drinking night...LOL

Wax bullets lol....those damn things still hurt!! Now I like cats but had to try and that booger jumped at least 4 feet in the air when he got nailed with a half load in a .357 shell Anything more than a half load of powder only made the wax disintegrate and even with a half load, still made about the same level of noise as the real thing. Try walking around the neighborhood these days doing that! As for gags or jokes, there's many but we used to do the potato in the exhaust pipe a lot and jack the rear wheels just enough to let them spin but still look like they were still on the ground. In high school, a teacher had one of those Isettas and we tried to leave a large parking place for him and then park a car behind and it front of it once he got out. He didn't keep that one for very long lol

We put a guys rx3 (I think) up on milk crates. Like Cranky said, looked like it was on the ground, but wasn't. There was about 6" of snow on the ground to boot. Took that guy 15 min to figure out what was up. Kept getting out, looking around, getting back in...

There was a mcdonalds that lots of us used to raise hell at, esp the drivethrough. One night, while raising hell, we used a "survival saw"- the kind that comes in that hollow handled boot knife- to saw off the big plastic ronald's waving hand. The next day in autobody class it was "modified", and that night returned and remounted...backwards, with only the middle finger remaining!!

Speaking of McDonalds, when I was in boarding school, we were taken on a field trip. On the way back, the big school bus stopped at Mickey D's- one of them with a life sized Ronald statue out front. A few of us snuck out while everyone was eating, tore the Ronald off his foundation, threw him in the back of the school bus. We got on the bus ahead of the rest of the class, sat on top of him so the teachers wouldn't notice. Got back to school, jumped out and chucked him under the bus. Teachers didn't catch on. That night, we crept back to the bus, grabbed Ronnie and carried him to our dorm, where we placed him on the front lawn. VT state police showed up the next morning to rescue him.

After that, every school meeting, we would yell "FREE RONALD!" to the giggles of the rest of the school.

It took a while for folks to notice that ronald was a bit different.

Imageine an 8' ronald, smiling and gleefully giving everyone passing by "the bird".
