So my Boss is forever playing pranks around the office, including several on me. Now, I've known him for about 10 years aside from the two I've worked here, so we are pretty close. I've warned him each time he ****ed with me that he would get his, and he would always laugh, and say "Whatever..."

Well, his day came ;) He took his annual trip to Las Vegas for Christmas, and we thought we would add a few things to his office while he was gone ;)

Here is the succession of the prank. We began by covering his desk and all stuff on it with trashbags to prevent the contents from getting trashed, and started blowing up balloons:

The above shot was taken through the drop ceiling

As you can see from the last two shots, the balloons are literally wall to wall, floor to ceiling. It took 4 guys roughly 4 hours with an air compressor to fill them all. There were 21 bags of 72 balloons each, so 1,512 minus about 20 casualties.

Boss (Jeff) came in this morning, and we bull****ted as normal. He walked up to his door to walk in, and I said "One thousand, five hundred and twelve". He asked me "What the hell are you talking about?" I replied "You're going to ask me a question in a moment, and the answer is one thousand, five hundred and twelve." Then he opened his door:

Cleanup was not bad at all. Only took about 20 minutes.

All in all, $117 worth of balloons, 4 hours of my personal time... Money and time very well spent :D
 
How did you get rid of them so fast? Hire this guy to go in there and jump around? :p

Good one Matt, I'd also be interested in knowing how you popped all of them so fast..:eek:
 
I had a box cutter, and a co worker had two sewing needles. Quick, easy, and simple. Hell, all you had to do was move in the room and they popped all by themselves it was so full... :)
