Cognac Team Wishes You a Happy April Fool’s Day
Posted by admin in Featured Articles on 04 1st, 2009 | 3 responses
We gave up! We tried hard, ended up staying late last night trying to figure out what we can do to fool our readers and visitors. We came with a few ideas. One of them was to release a post saying the a new cognac brand had been marked as the most expensive cognac with a price tag of $5 million. That idea didn’t work out very well. Next, we thought we would simply redirect cognac.com to April Fool’s day entry on Wikipedia. Well, that didn’t happen. We thought of a few other things but at the end we decided we would simply skip fooling around this year.
Today the web is going crazy with April Fool’s day pranks. Pretty much all the URLs we type in have some form of pranks hidden somewhere. We hope you are having fun. Meanwhile, our partner site Applicant, has posted a list of hoaxes that fooled many for years. And if you are really into pranks, be sure to check out their compilation of office pranks.
Before we leave you to enjoy more of April Fool’s Day frenzy, we would like to know if you know of any April Fool related alcohol advertising or commercial. If nothing else, share some alcohol related facts, images or videos that are funny with us. We might be able to use it for our next post. Hope you all are having a great day.
Happy April Fool’s Day!

All I can say is next time… contact me. I have “experience”!
Why didn’t I think of that?! Waiting for a whole year might be quite hard for us. May be we will plan something soon, don’t always have to do things on designated days, do we?
I trust you would not have reservations if I put up a part of this on my univeristy blog?
