Two DJ's on a local radio station announced that Massachusetts governor, Thomas Menino, had died in a car crash. Unfortunately Menino was hard to reach that day and many friends and family began to panic. Eventually the hoax was revealed and the two DJ's were suspended without pay.
At Work:
A man was working on a major project for his work that had a far away deadline. He received a prank memo saying that the deadline was moved and his project was due in two weeks. He got so stressed about about that project that he experienced heart palpitations. He left work and was forced into early retirement. He also sued everyone that worked there.
At the House:
Randy Woods invited his ex-wife over on April Fool's Day one year to play a prank on her. His ex-wife showed up to find him hanging in the tree. (It looked like he was hanging himself but he was really being supported by a safety harness). His wife called 911 and he was later jailed for one year and fined $1,000.
Be careful with your pranks...you never know what could go wrong!

Devon,
That is crazy. That stinks for the people trying to pull those pranks. I wonder what had happened to the man who went into early retirement. Also the man who went to jail for one year and fined $1,000, I wonder why he had to go to jail for just pretending to hang himself. i didn't know there were so many tricks you can do to people on april fool's day. -maddie
I love april fools day as much as the next guy, i live for pranks, but I understand (especially by personal experience) that you should only go so far with ur pranks or else reprecussions could be extreme, and not end up being as funny as you had hoped. - Dean FM
