40 Years Ago Today, Nerds From MIT Dropped Their Nuts On Nerds From Harvard and Yale With One Of The Best Pranks Ever
Listen, in todays standards this probably doesn’t impress people because nobody died, there was no nudity, and it didn’t go viral. But make no mistake, back in 1982, I’m sure this was the biggest story in new England for months. The amount of pussy the tri-lam squad from M.I.T. that was behind this probably rivaled a Dubai prince’s harem. A prank like this leaves a mark on its victims, and gets the ladies talking.

Can you imagine if something like this happened today? Obviously different day and different age, but if a balloon rose out of the ground at a sporting event, inflated, and then burst with a white powder rising out of it, into the air, I’m pretty sure a national emergency would be declared.
