Will you partake in any April Fools' Day pranks?

Do you plan to pull a few tricks today?

TODAY IS APRIL Fools’ Day, a day dedicated to jokes and tricks. 

In Scotland, April Fools’ Day was traditionally called Huntigowk Day, meaning “hunt the cuckoo” or “foolish person.” 

The mischief is traditionally only permitted until noon; anyone who attempts a prank after that is then considered the April fool.

Today we want to know: Will you partake in any April Fools’ Day pranks?
