Have you ever received a prank phone call? Do you remember the ones from years ago, "Do you have Prince Albert in a can? Then let him out." "Is your refrigerator running? Better catch it." They have gotten so sophisticated now with sound boards and real celebrity voices that convince people they are for real. This one without any sophisticated equipment takes the cake!
In Arkansas where the rumors abound about no teeth and marrying your sister/brother/father/cousin and stupidity is a family name, a Holiday Inn employee did nothing to abort these rumors after doing what a prank phone caller told her to do. On Saturday morning the employee, Christina "Duh" Bergmann followed the Grennel Fire Sprinkler service "employees" instructions, even having a hotel guest help with her tasks. Rusty "Idiot" Brown helped "duh" break windows out of the lobby after she set the fire alarm off, turned off the electricity and broke a sprinkler head in the lobby causing $50,000 in damage.
I personally nominate "duh" and "idiot" for the Darwin award

Gah.
Unbelievable.
Darwin would be so ashamed! *smile*
No way! I have no words.
The level of some people's stupidity truly amazes me sometimes.
Umm, excuse me, but you forgot to leave a link to where the naked pics can be found.
I read in this morning's paper that there have been rash of these pranks around the U.S. It gets even better. At a Hampton Inn in York, Nebraska, when the prank caller convinced the hotel clerk that breaking lobby windows was the only way to silence the alarms that the caller convinced the clerk to set off, the clerk got a trucker to help by driving his truck through the front door.
Not all of the hotels/motels that have gotten the calls have fallen for them, but a number have. And I'm sure there have been a lot of these pranks that have not been reported.
According to the article officials are convinced that there is more than one person involved in the rash of pranks and they think an Internet prank site might be behind it.
So, it's more than just "Duh" and "Idiot". It's Duh, Duh, Duh ... and Idiot, Idiot, Idiot ...
Unfortunately, to get the Darwin Award you have to die as a result of your actions, thereby eliminating the possibility of passing your Duh and Idiot genes to future generations.
I don't get it. Is that something that's dumb? I mean what are you supposed to do then? Hmmm.
It was just brought to my attention that I wasn't clear before. For the link that I am looking for is to the video of you running around the house naked three times. Pics would be nice, but a video would be better.
