Kitna pulls Lions trade prank
Posted: Tuesday April 08, 2008 07:45AM ET
Jon Kitna is on target already. Kitna, the Lions' starting quarterback and No. 1 prankster, scored a direct hit on his first victim of the season. Dan Orlovsky, a backup to Kitna, arrived at the locker room a week ago today for his regular workout with the team and got word he was in the process of being traded to the Colts.

Report Offensive CommentAre they sure it was Jon that pulled the prank on Dan? It sure sounds like something Drew Stanton would do.

Report Offensive CommentI guess playing for the Lions would make a man mean.

Report Offensive CommentThe mean thing about this prank is that even if they told him it was a joke 5 minutes later, Dan would then have to go take his house back off the market, unpack, and cancel the plane tickets....If it was me, I would be half way to indy before they finished the sentence telling me I got traded.

Report Offensive CommentHow cruel...when they finally told him the truth.

Report Offensive Commentyeah, i've never heard of a prank backfiring on the pranksters as bad as this one did. Orlovsky was definitely more pissed off when they told him the truth.

Report Offensive CommentShoulda said he was being traded to the Falcons or ordered to serve the rest of Vick's term. That would be funny.
