    Step 1: pre record a lotto draw
    Step 2: nominate your victim (has to be a lotto player)
    Step 3: Play lotto with numbers drawn in recorded draw
    Step 4: have a few friends round a week from recorded draw so days match
    step 5: Switch victims ticket with the ticket you got earlier with draw numbers on it, you see where were going?:D
    Step 6: make sure video/dvd is in player, paused ready to be played(make sure times match)
    Step 7: tell your mates you want to see the lotto draw and naturaly the ticket will come out.
    Step 8: press play and switch to recorded draw
    Step 9: make sure you can see your mates face from where your sitting:D

    I herd of this prank from a workmate and tried it on my mate last year, had a few of the lads round for some beers and had the dvd already playing, i knew my mate was a very regular lotto player who dosnt play the same numbers, everything went to plan, ticket came out as soon as the draw came on. the rest is history. poor fella nearly had a heart attack and so did we after we told him it was a prank:D:D

    Think before you do this dangerous prank. Remember what happened when the Fresh Prince did it to Geoffrey the butler? Long story short: it got ugly, relationships changed.

    Or when someone asks you to take down the lotto numbers, take down the ones that are on the ticket.

    Only jumble them up.

    A variation is to buy a ticket after the draw at about 8:30 for next week's draw with the winning numbers from this week's 8:00 draw and then ask someone to check the ticket when the numbers are given out again at the end of the news. I've seen this done in a pub. Funny enough in a warped way but cruel beyond belief. I wouldn't recommend it.

    At a house party:

    Lift the toilet lid & seat.
    Stretch cling film over the rim of the toilet.
    Close down the seat & lid, inform fellow (male) partygoers.
    Watch for (female) victim to go into bathroom, then call for a hushed silence.
    Wait for the scream.

    Works everytime.... :D

    Here is a better one IMO. My father did this to his friend.
    Friend asked my father to call out winning numbers from the paper. Now he is sitting beside the friend so he is looking at the numbers from the lotto slip, he can see them clearly and begins reading.
    So he thought he won the lottery but my father just couldn't stop laughing, the friend was a bit cross with for that:D

    My mate did this to another (former) mate of his in college, needless to say it turned ugly. He locked himself in his room for days.

    Think of it, is a feeling of sheer joy, unbelievable shock and excitement, quickly dashed by bitter horrible disappointment and embarrasment, it's the sort of stuff that would kill you father

    My friend pulled a class prank on an ex of our friend who had treated him badly..

    Rang her school pretending to be her uncle, told them to call her over the intercom and explain to her that she needed to leave early (dentist appointment or something) and that he as he wouldnt be able to collect her he'd send a taxi for her.
    Ordered a taxi to her school.

    Not sure how that one turned out but we got a good laugh out of it!

    We regularly prank called her, ordered chinese food/taxis to her house etc.. Pretty childish looking back, but very amusing.. Oh and one time 7 or 8 of us pissed in her driveway :confused::confused:

    There was also talk of having a few tonnes of sand/gravel delivered to her house.. I think that was the point it became 'too far'.

    Did some woman do this to her husband in the west of ireland a few years back? But it got nasty. He didnt tell her he had won and dumped her later that day! (still thinking he had won)

    Haha. Yes. Calling and ordering the chinese. Tell the big fat f.ucker thats delivering that a lot of the time you can't hear the bell so tell him to give the door a good hard few kicks. Sit back, and watch his kick the shi.te out of the door across the road.

    ha, the husband was walking down the road with the daughter last week and she spotted a €50 on the ground,

    He bent down and picked it up and looked at it, someone had colour photocopied it...


    so he is there looking at it and next of all a fog horn goes off and three 10 year olds are shouting abuse out of a house....

    He threw it back down, he was only five mins further down the road, and he could hear the fog horn go off again,

    Little feckers:):)

    Now, that's ^^^ funny, and harmless!!

    The Lotto one, jeez, no! If someone did that to me, I would honestly never forgive them.



    Our "local" is still enough of a genuine local that people sometimes ring it looking for one of the regulars, and the bar staff will actually shout out the name, pass the phone over the counter to them, etc. There have been a few Bart Simpson / Moe calls over the years ...

    Strangely enough, the one which always seems to work with newbies is probably the oldest of the lot. As recently as last summer, the whole pub was in stitches as the new 20 / 21 year old Ozzie barman, who would fancy himself as a bit of a player, and wide to all the tricks, was heard roaring through the place: "Is Mike Hunt here? Hey, guys, has anyone seen Mike Hunt?"

    No-one ever did find out who rang up, and the owner and I certainly had nothing to do with it ... >_>

    There's a similar one done by a load of lads around 19/20. Same idea just that they are up very high on a wall and have a tenner on the end of a fishing rod. There's a vid on youtube of it but that site is blocked for me in work so can't get to it. Well worth a look though as it's f*ckin hilarious.
