Chicago Prank in Beantown

Yesterday, Chicago's WGN TV pulled a bit of a prank in Boston.  Two reporters dressed in suits with official looking id tags were carrying a large case around the city with camera guys following them.  The case had NHL insignia and tags on it.  Everyone encountered had to believe there was a certain trophy in it since the Hawks were in town to play the Bruins for that trophy.

They managed to gather quite the entourage as they walked the street and occassionally dropped or almost dropped the case, drawing gasps from the folks.  When people asked if they could see what was in the case, they's say sure and then pop it open to reveal a Blackhawks jersey with big grins on their faces.

Most people started laughing and said that they'd been had, but one girl hauled off and popped one reporter in the back and said something that had to be bleeped out.

Search WGN TV Fake Stanley Cup and select "Pat dupes Bostonians into thinking case holds Stanley Cup.  Well worth a watch.
