10 Of The Best Viral April Fools' Day Pranks
Today is April Fools' Day. People everywhere are celebrating in some very unpredictable ways. The meaning of the holiday is to bring down a hailstorm of annoying pranks on every unsuspecting victim you can find. Companies often like to join in on the fun, and that's prompted them to announce the release of fake products, post things that will antagonize their haters on social media, commit marketing sins and many more hilarious yet ridiculous jokes.
It's a special corporate holiday that leaves us unsure what to believe every time April 1st rolls around. You can't take any news articles seriously today, and you can't trust anything you see on social media, either, because it might just be one of these pranks. Take a look at some of our favorite pranks from recent April Fools' Days (including today) that are worth remembering for years to come.
