They buried a weather balloon in the field and inflated it during the game.

Quote:
The balloon prank required so much planning and technical know-how that it has to go down as the greatest in college sports history, one that could never be duplicated.

This one is my favorite. Yale students pretend to be the "Harvard Pep Squad" and get Harvard students to raise cards that spell out "We suck".

Caltech's Rose Bowl Prank of 1961 was excellent:

I like the fact that this story is an excerpt from a book titled, "If At All Possible Involve a Cow: The Book of College Pranks."

So true.

I haven't read that book, but it made me think of Maudine Ormsby, tOSU's 1926 homecoming queen -- a Holstein cow.
