As past members of the Champs Sports/Foot Locker family, we dabbled in quite a bit of shenanigans in our college days.

Bill Wennington

Case of the Mondays got you down? Well, we here at ZubazPants.com have just the remedy to help you kick those blahs. As past members of the Champs Sports/Foot Locker family, we dabbled in quite a bit of shenanigans in our college days. Here, every Monday, we’ll share a prank we pulled that you could do right in your cubicle!

Today’s prank was one of our favorites. Simple and effective, all that’s necessary is a telephone and a serious tone of voice. Call up the local Foot Locker or Champs Sports franchise, wait for the employee to go through their “2 for $89.99″ schpeel and then ask if they have any of those “hot Bill Wennington throwbacks” in stock. There just ain’t much better than the befuddled silence or “Uhhhh …” that you’ll hear for the next three seconds. Priceless.

You don’t have to use Bill Wennington, but he’s one of our favorites. You want to be obscure, but not too obscure. Everyday — but not household — names from the 80s or 90s that have faded over the years. You know, the Harold Miners and Rik Smits of the world. Tom Gugliotta is another good one. Goofy white NBAers are always good for some shits and giggles.
