During my playing career, I was known as the team prankster and I am proud to say that I successfully completed many pranking missions at the expense of my team mates. I do remember a prank being wonderfully executed, which I want to add, took a long time to plan. The prank was done to my room mate, but the result for me was rather painful, as he didn’t find it amusing and proceeded to punch me while I was stuck in a cupboard (which is where the prank mission control center was situated). To this day, this prank is always a highlight story when we get together and he also has a chapter dedicated to this prank in his autobiography. Yes, my prank is now famous…it was executed to perfection! Like me, Raheem Sterling executes a prank on John Stones, who wasn’t impressed at all (which makes me want to laugh even more). It’s always a good laugh when one isn’t the victim of the prank! Rio Ferdinand had a show a few years ago where he pranked fellow players. Below is one of those shows where he pranks the one and only David Beckham. After spending over an hour watching the various videos and laughing a whole lot, I highly recommend you watch it too (search Rio Ferdinand footballer pranks), it’s an hour well spent.
