Car Pranks, designed to frustrate or confound
everyone but you. Some of these require victims with a sense of humor. Not
all these are original, but they are my favorites:
- Wave at someone you don’t know. They usually assume a dumbfounded facial
expression and wonder, “Who was that? Do I know them?” I get some great
reactions out of this. - When you’re driving alone, pretend to be talking to someone next to you.
Any one passing you will look to see who the short person was that you’re
talking too. They’ll look again when they see no one. - Break into your own car. Need I explain?
- In a crowded parking lot, wave your keys around and pretend to be heading
to your car. People looking for a parking spot will follow you all over
the place. - Also in a parking lot, when someone pulls into the parking spot facing you,
you slowly ease out, making them think they’re not moving. - As a car pulls out of the parking lot yell, “Hey, That’s my car! That’s my
car!” A friend of mine did this. A couple of upstanding citizens chased
the car for half a block while he faded into the crowd. - Between one intersection and another, gesculate wildly and point at
someone’s tires. At the next intersection, when they unroll their windows
to hear what you’re saying, you explain, “Nice tires.” - It’s also fun to find someone picking their nose at an intersection and
stare intently at them. This is kind of tasteless, but boy, do I get some
good reactions when they notice. - When there’s three guys in a car (# in front or 3 in back) and you’re not
in the middle, duck as a car drives by. It looks like the other two guys
are huddled up together. - Ever notice that even the slightest flash of brake-lights produces great
produces great reactions from tailgaters?
