1.Imagine reading that your husband or brother who has been held in a prison for years is finally going to be released. You make the long journey to the prison and stand outside the prison gates, waiting desperately for the moment you'll be reunited with your loved one, only to hear... 'April Fools! No one's being released!' This experience happened to sixty people in April 2000 who read in the Opinia newspaper that their loved ones were going to be released from the Baia Mare prison in Romania. They made the long journey to the prison, only to learn that the paper had played an April Fool's joke on them. The Opinia later published an apology.
想象你的亲人正在监狱服刑,而一天你突然从报纸上看到他们要被提前释放的消息。你满怀欢喜地去迎接他们,最后在监狱门口被告知,这只是个愚人节玩笑,你会怎么想?2000年罗马尼亚的一家监狱愚弄了60个人,结果不得不公开道歉。
