I remember back in the day five horizons did a funny one when they announced Animal from the muppets would be Jack Irons's permanent replacement. But today, TFT takes the cake.

Years ago I belonged to a now-defunct Dylan site called "Dylan Pool" and every year on 4/1 the site's header would be elaborately changed to read "Celine Pool," or "Phil Collins Pool," or something like that. It was pretty class.

One year this site was decked to the max with Hello Kitty pink.

Also, I kind of remember one of the boards being changed to a Creed skin. Was that this one or the message pit?

I lol'd for real when I saw the TFT tweet.

Didn't this site do one before Avocado was released, with a message from Ed (Buggy), who sounded disappointed that the record had leaked?

RM has had some pretty great april fools jokes in the past. Bring back the No Code Riddles!

The one Buggy(?) or Green Habit (?) did a few years ago for Avocado was really great. He posted this audio of "World Wide Suicide" which was just this awfully recorded tough-to-hear vocal. I bit it hard.

I remember when RM became the Hello Kitty forum.

That one was ok. Worst was the bacon site one.

That had to be one of the best AF pranks I've ever seen. I remember talking to a friend of mine after hearing "Ed", we genuinely felt guilty about having listened to the leak :haha:

Almost all of the great pranks came from Buggy

Pearl Jam, fan sites, and April Fools.
