And the best practical joke was...
In the end, it seemed it HAD to involve a sales guy. Yes, there were fantastic pranks played on co-ops, on and new hires, on secretaries and purchasing agents, but in the end, nothing makes us laugh more than the misfortunes of a sales guy.
So, on this, April Fool's Day, we crown Bob Stevens the winner of the inaugural Engineering Practical Jokes contest with his entry: How to shut the sales guy up. Bob wins prizes including a whoopee cushion, perfect for throne as champion.
