Filipinos are bringing up a clip of an episode of an old American syndicated nontraditional court show where a man got a tattoo on his forehead after falling for a prank on April Fools’ Day.

This was resurfaced after Taragis, a Pampanga-based takoyaki food brand, gained traction for challenging its followers on Facebook to have its logo tattooed on their foreheads for P100,000.

In the now-deleted viral post, the brand announced that the first individual who would send a picture of their tattooed forehead will win the supposed cash prize.

The post was uploaded on April 1, the same date the global community observes the annual day of jokes and pranks.

Taragis also wrote the following text in its graphic: “Click the photo for official rules.”

Clicking the photo accompanying its Facebook post reveals a full version of the graphic with a colorful text below, which reads: “April Fool’s.”

Basically, someone actually followed through with the "challenge" and had his forehead tattooed 😢

Hopefully the home crowd can help boost our team's chances to win their first game in the qualifiers 🙏🏼

Sorry this took later than usual, I'm currently on the road (or sea, technically speaking) and will be having limited internet connectivity for a week

@rezz was banned from the instance more than a week ago, as I explained here. I've only logged back to Lemmy.world that day, which is why it wasn't detected sooner.

~~Now that his account's been reinstated, I'm calling for assistance from my fellow mods to bring him back to the team (I don't know how 🥲 )~~

I figured out how, thanks to this doc. Welcome back again, @rezz! 🥳 🎉

I had to make this post manually because @rezz, the mod who routinely posts this, has been banned from the instance 6 days ago by a new Lemmy.world admin. It was because his posts contained links to NBA streams, which are now prohibited in the instance.

Any thoughts, fellow c/NBA visitors and mods? @Hurts @VodkaSolution @Alchemy @[email protected] @[email protected] @cavsfan
