Best Pranks/Prank Calls You've Ever Done

[Proudiddy]

Pranks or prank calls. I was inspired by and originally went to post this in the GM Prank Call thread, but figured it needed a thread of it's own.

Man, I would have made so much money by now if I would've recorded my prank calls back in the day. My friends always made me do it because I was the only one who wouldn't laugh during it.

I hate giving away my trade secrets, but it's not like I'm going to do anything with it now and because society has shifted to being so PC and overly serious about everything, prank calls aren't really what they used to be now...

Anyway, two awesome premises I used to operate off of... We would find a couple listed in the phonebook and then ask for the woman, have a discussion with the man that picked up, and then reveal that we are the woman's boyfriend. I actually had a 10 minute conversation with a couple one time using a cornball voice the whole time and they said they remembered me from high school and everything, lol. Things went bad when they put me on speaker and I alluded to that time she did me "a favor."

The other one was, I liked to call stores with an effeminate sounding voice and asking if they sold caulk. Tons of fun. Had one store send 2 different people on a price check one time and when they came back, I ask if they sold it by the inch. I asked if it was for sale again, and the guy assured me it was, and then I said, "No! I mean is your caulk for sale?" Awkward silence.

I've never done any prank calling, but me and a guy that works with me here would prank telemarketers when they call the office with the Chris Tucker sound board. We had this one lady talk to it for like 5 minutes.

I've done some good ones in my day. Nothing I really care to share but, if you haven't listened to all the Jerky Boys stuff or Willie P. Richardson and his wife, you're really missing out.

I've called a random person and talked to them for over an hour while pretending that I was a 50 year old black coal miner whose newspaper they stole.

I've called my friends house while he was gone pretending to be a service representative for a dlido company. I told his parents that he ordered one and I needed to know if he wanted it to be able to shoot liquids or not.

I called MDonalds using the Bane voice while bitching them out for putting mayonnaise on my chicken sandwich.

My friend used to call random people pretending he was a radio DJ and would tell them that they just won some random prize, all they had to do was say the alphabet backwards or do some other stupid poo

Oh man, that Bane one may be gold. "Let the games begin!"

The dildo thing brought back memories because my friend and I who created the "couple lookup" prank call also did something similar in high school. He was talking about all of those "wholesale closeout prices extravaganza!" deals at the state fairgrounds and how they always run that ticker across the ads on tv with "Gotta buy!" repeatedly and non-stop.

So, I guess out of frustration we called all these girls we had been talking to and were hoping to date and he did the dildo sales pitch while I repeatedly pushed "gotta buy, gotta buy, gotta buy, gotta buy" in the background until the call was over. No, it wasn't genius, but it was fun.

call display really killed all the fun

We still used *67 for awhile, but people started getting way too serious...

One time my friend called some old folks pretending to be a wrecking service confirming an appointment to tear their house down at 3pm the next day. It was ridiculously funny. Dumb thing was that he left messages using another guys number we knew at the time whom he hated. The old folks eventually called the cops on said guy. Still awesome.

I used to call people with the last name McDonald in the phonebook and frequently order a big mac with fries.

We had one of my female friends call up a strip club looking for work. She told them she was blind and said she's have to have her seeing eye dog Bessie up there with her while performing.

She kept talking and took it super seriously, and kept asking whether they be able to accomodate her special needs and whether or not they discriminate. Too hilarious, but the employees took it so well.
