Think your prank was good?

According to the Museum of Hoaxes Web site, the No. 1 April Fools’ Day prank (ranked by notoriety, absurdity and number of people duped) was in 1957, when a BBC news show reported the elimination of the harmful “”spaghetti weevil.”” Video footage of farmers harvesting spaghetti from trees prompted viewers to call in, asking how they could grow their own spaghetti tree.
