During freshman year, my roommate had a lecture at 9AMs. One night he went to bed a little early so that he could get up at 6AM and go running beforehand. So, seeing that he was going to be up at 6AM anyway, I set all his clocks/watches three hours ahead. When his alarm went off, I pretended to not hear it (not too hard -- I have a repuation when it comes to sleeping through alarms) and tried not to laugh while he hastily put on his rollerblades and ran out the door.
He must have been half-asleep and panicked, because he didn't notice that it a was a little darker than usual (or that the campus was completely empty). All the lights were turned off when he got to "class," so he assumed they were watching a movie. He went in quietly and, realizing that nobody was there, became really confused. Then he left the room and asked a guy who was blowing leaves if his class got out early. When the leaf-blower gave him a crazy look, it finally started to dawn on him that it wasn't 9AM...
Poor guy... It's pretty hilarious what even smart people will do when they're tired and rushed.
Of course, now that we're seniors, he would probably just shrug and go back to sleep, but it was a great prank at the time. I've been trying to think of something to top it for almost three years now, but just can't. Does anybody have any good (clean) pranks to share?
