Top Five April Fools' Jokes to Play on Oklahoma City Thunder Fans - Yahoo! Canada Sports
Apr 1st 2012, 02:15

The Oklahoma City Thunder will play the Chicago Bulls April 1 in Chesapeake Energy Arena. The meeting of the two best teams in the NBA will foster a belief that the game will be a preview of the 2012 NBA Finals. Yet April Fools' Day is a time to have a little fun.

Try some of these pranks to play on your Thunder fan this April Fools' Day.

Bad Weather

Tell your Thunder fan that bad weather is canceling the game because the Bulls can't make it from their hotel to the arena. Of course, the weather forecast is for mostly sunny skies and a high of 92 degrees in Oklahoma City for the day of the game. When your buddy looks up and sees perfect skies, try to convince him or her that the weather forecast said the snow was supposed to come through on a cold front that hits around 11 a.m. local time, an hour before the game.

Church Out Early

Christians everywhere will be celebrating Palm Sunday April 1, the day in which they observe the triumphant entry of Jesus into Jerusalem a week before he rose into heaven. Try to convince your spouse that church is letting out early to people can attend and watch the game due to its importance. Of course, church really will be in session as religious obligations are more important than basketball.

Kevin Durant to Lakers

Kevin Durant couldn't take it anymore. He wants an NBA title now, so you can tell your friend that Durant decided to play for the Los Angeles Lakers. That means the Thunder would have to waive their superstar and Los Angeles would have to sign him to a new contract since the season is past the trade deadline.

Team Moved

Much like the Baltimore Colts did in an overnight move, convince your friend that the Thunder shipped back to Seattle overnight March 31 into April 1. Seattle is trying to woo a franchise anyway, whether through expansion or a team moving.

Arena Renamed

Chesapeake Energy Arena will be renamed the Starbucks Center. Both companies are similar as they provide energy—one for machines, another for the human body. Starbucks is based in Seattle so you can watch the befuddled look on your Thunder fan when you tell them Starbucks is making a ploy to convince Oklahoma City fans that the city is just southeast Seattle.

William Browning has been a fan of the Oklahoma City Thunder ever since the team relocated from Seattle. As the closest NBA team to Branson, Mo., the Thunder serve as the regional team for southwest Missouri.
