My best practical Joke Ever.

A buddy of mine (who doesn't play online) but the occasional underground or charity poker tournament kept taking about wanting to get sponsored. So I took it upon myself to PUNK him. This is what followed.

1 month ago
I purchase a FullTilt baseball shirt on ebay with his name on the back. (some company in singapore makes them)

2 weeks ago
The shirt arrives and a friend and I construct an official looking letter stating that the site is looking to expand sponsorship to local land based players and that he was being given a conditional sponsorship.

1 week ago
I head to Vegas for the Venetian and Caesars Deepstacks and take the shirt and letter with me. I send them out from Vegas to his residence in Toronto.

Today
Package arrives, his facebook tagline announces he has been sponsored by FT. His friends and family all congratulate him. He is genuinely stoked.

UNTIL I post this picture.

LOL he's no longer stoked.

  • Sometimes you have to be cruel to be funny. Great idea. Poor lad.

    I did the same thing years ago with a university football playing friend. Sent him a quite genuine looking letter requesting his presence at Chicago Bears training camp after a 'scout' saw him play here in Canada. Thought the 240lb bloke was going to kill me.

  • LOL. This is all kinds of awesome.
