The Smoking Gun - Fresh from a Texas penitentiary, a notorious prankster yesterday said that he deeply regretted his telephone terrorism and specifically apologized for a malicious hoax of his that ended with a Kentucky hotel clerk drinking the urine of a guest...The conviction stemmed from a prank call that resulted in significant damage to a McDonald’s restaurant. He has also pleaded guilty to criminal charges in Louisiana related to another prank call targeting a Wendy’s restaurant...Markle’s most heinous call, however, was placed in July 2009 to a Homewood Suites hotel in Lexington, Kentucky. That involved prank concluded with a front desk worker drinking a urine sample provided by a guest (Markle led the female employee to believe the sample was apple cider). The call--broadcast live in the Pranknet chat room—is excerpted below. After the worker ingested the urine, Markle exulted, “I want you to understand, ma’am, that you just drank that man’s urine.”
No disrespect to this man's prank phone calling skills, but I wouldn't exactly considering getting some idiot from Kentucky to do something stupid an accomplishment...just saying that wouldn't be on my list of greatest hits or anything. Think about it, he called up on the phone and asked the hotel clerk to sample "apple cider" that a random guest just happened to have on them. That's really not his doing, there really isn't even a prank here, guy just got locked up for having a conversation with your average dumb ass over the phone.
PS: I'd much rather know the details about how we managed to cause significant damage to McDonald's and Wendy's restaurants via phone calls, or why he spared the King? Guy an employee or stock holder in Burger King? Or are their employees just a bit smarter than your average McD's burger flipper and didn't fall for his schtick. I need to know these details, not going to be able to get any work done today wondering this the entire time.
