Don't be like these people on April Fool's Day

Let’s face it – we’ve all been victims of the holiday. So, no judgment from us, but we will give credit where credit is due to the pranksters. Here’s a list of some excellently executed April Fool’s Day pranks. May these serve as inspiration... or a warning!

1. The Left-handed Whopper

Burger King took a bite out of people’s pride when they announced the “left-handed Whopper.”  It had all the same ingredients, rotated 180 degrees for lefties.  Thousands of customers came into order them – and lots of others complained that they wanted a righty whopper just for them!

2. The UFO Sighting

Leave it to Richard Branson to take April Fool’s Day to another universe!  To the dismay of residents, a UFO landed outside of London.  When police approached with their weapon drawn, out stepped the Virgin Records mogul.  He was just having a little fun by building and flying a hot air balloon that he had specifically designed to look like a UFO.

3. Welcome to…

The city of angels nearly made their visitors crazy.  They posted an 85-foot long and 20-foot high banner saying “Welcome to Chicago” directly in the flight path of planes landing at Los Angeles airport!
