About the Event

Just in time for April Fool’s day, join Leyla Royale on a tour of pranks gone wrong & learn how Chicagoans of yesterday celebrated April 1st

With stories unearthed from Chicago’s newspaper archives, you’ll hear why it’s not a good idea to put a lit firework in someone’s back pocket and just how deadly it can be to surprise your coworker with compressed air.

We’ll also take a look back at how Chicagoans back in the day celebrated April Fool’s (and other holidays) with some more lighthearted jokes, without the mortal consequences.

****************************

This event is FREE with donations suggested/welcome.

The talk will be broadcast on Facebook Live via Effing Chicago.
