Top April Fool's Jokes

Some include:

  • In 1996, Yum! Brands' Taco Bell unit announced that it had purchased Philadelphia's Liberty Bell, and would be renaming it the Taco Liberty Bell. According to the folks at museumofhoaxes.com, "when White House press secretary Mike McCurry was asked about the sale ... he responded that the Lincoln Memorial had also been sold, though to a different corporation, and would now be known as the Ford Lincoln Mercury Memorial."
  • In 1998, the folks at Burger King made a splash with their debut of the "Left-handed Whopper," as a convenience for the millions of lefties out there. The burger's fixings were remaining the same, but they'd be rotated 180 degrees. (Burger King is expected to have an initial public offering in the near future.)
  • In 2002, Google revealed its secret: Its Web searches weren't based on fancy computer algorithms, but instead were carried out by specially trained pigeons.
  • In 1986, millions were shocked to learn that the Eiffel Tower was being moved to Disney's EuroDisney theme park outside Paris. And in 1995, the Irish Times reported that Lenin's embalmed body would also be moved to EuroDisney.
  • In 1996, when Virgin Cola was competing with Motley Fool Inside Value pick Coca-Cola and PepsiCo, it announced that it had developed cans that turned blue when their contents were no longer fresh. This was very clever, since PepsiCo had recently introduced a new look for its still-blue cans.

Italian Mother

Mrs. Bacciagalupe comes to visit her son Anthony for dinner. Anthony lives with a female roommate, Maria.

During the course of the meal, Mama can't help but notice how pretty Anthony's roommate was. She had long been suspicious of the relationship between the two, and this made her more curious.

Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Anthony and his roommate than meets the eye.

Reading his Mom's thoughts, Anthony volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Mama, Maria and I are just roommates."

About a week later, Maria comes to Anthony saying, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the silver sugar bowl. You don't suppose she took it, do you?"

Well, I doubt it, but I'll e-mail her, just to be sure." So he sends his Mom an email:

"Dear Momma, I'm not saying that you took the sugar bowl from my house, and I'm not saying that you didn't take it. But the fact remains that it has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.

Love,

Anthony"

Several days later, Anthony receives an email response from his Momma.

"Figlio mio, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Maria, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with her. But the fact remains that if she was sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the sugar bowl by now.

Love, Momma"

Which Hole?

A man playing on a new golf course got confused as to what hole he was on. He saw a lady playing ahead of him. He walked up to her and asked if she knew what hole he was playing. She replied, "I'm on the 7th hole, and you're a hole behind me, so you must be on the 6th hole." He thanked her and went back to his golf.

On the back nine, the same thing happened, and he approached the lady again with the same request. She said, "I'm on the 14th, you are a hole behind me, so you must be on the 13th." Once again he thanked her.

He finished his round and went into the club house and saw the lady sitting at the end of the bar. He went up to her and said, "Let me buy you a drink to show my appreciation for your help." He started a conversation and asked her what kind of work she did. She said she was in sales, and he said he was in sales also. He asked what she sold.

She replied, "If I told you, you would only laugh."

"No, I wouldn't," he said.

She said, "I sell tampons."

With that he fell on the floor laughing so hard.

She said, "See, I knew you would laugh."

"That's not what I'm laughing at," he replied. "I'm a toilet paper salesman, so I'm STILL one hole behind you!"
