Default Anyone Pull any April Fools Jokes yesterday??

Coming into BOS from ROC I made an annoucment that BOS had shut down due to a disabled A/C blocking 2 runways....we told the folks we'd keep them posted on where we were diverting too....most likey MHT.....about 10 mins go by and I announced "On behalf of your Air Wisconsin Flight Crew we'd like to wish you all a very happy APRIL FOOLS!!"

They took it very well....all except one chick....oh well cant please them all....anyone else do anything???

I had both my parents convinced I got arrested for possession of dope and booze. They were very good sports about it
