How to successfully prank 55,000 people
Holy shit. My buddy Sean and I sat in right field in the upper deck at the Yankees-Tigers game two weeks ago, and near the end of the game there was a lost patron named Rob who had an immensely difficult time finding his seat. As Rob's friends called down to him, he looked exceedingly lost, prompting the entire section to begin chanting his name. He disappeared back into the tunnel, and later on emerged all the way in the left field bleachers. Rob returned to our section nearly an hour later, and everyone went absolutely apeshit crazy for him.I was trying to figure out a way to tell this story last week in a way that would actually be amusing to anyone besides Sean and I, but it turns out the whole thing was an incredibly elaborate joke. Check out this amazing write-up: Improv Everywhere Mission: Rob! Not only that, but the above picture from the recap is actually of our backs, randomly enough. Additionally, for the Lehigh folks out there, if you scroll even further down that page there's another photo of a certain brown Delta Phi brother.

I had heard he was the fattest man alive and now I have proof.
If you think this is funny, check out the other stuff Improv Everywhere has pulled off...I've written about them many times, they're fucking brilliant.
My favorite one was when they sent 100 people (or more, I forget) into Best Buy wearing blue collared shirts and khaki pants, the store's employee uniform. Very Thomas Crown...
That write up had me in tears.
Hysterical.
That's is great. Sweet that you all were in the midst of it..
