Great pranks. Sounds like you were able to mess with a lot of people and get away with it. Funny stuff, keep it up.

Jen – Yes, it may have been kind of old news for you, and for other Office fans, but the “NEW” part of this old story is that the audio is now available for download on iTunes.

This was said on Leno months ago. Kinda old news for me. But, at least it’s now available on iTunes so I can try it out for myself any time I feel like it.

[...] Give Me My Remote has the scoop, straight from Novak’s MySpace: while in high school B.J. and his brother decided to swipe the cassettes used for audio tours at the museum and replace them with their own tour, complete with Chinese music and everything (the tapes were for the Chinese art exhibit). The boys recruited fifteen of their friends to sneakily replace the regular cassettes with the new ones, thus giving museum goers a tour unlike any other. [...]

Jim Halpert’s got nothing on B.J. For goodness sake, the man was on Punk’d!

He’s a genius!!!

*sigh* I am not on iTunes, and I wish I could get it, but it hates my computer also… thanks Sara for the little bit… it just sounds hilarious

That was great.

On another note did anyone see the show tonight on Fox, Funniest TV Moments? I happened to turn it on just as they picked the number 11 funniest moment. It was the Diversity Day episode from The Office. They showed clips from the show and Lisa Kudrow and Carol Burnett both commented on how great the episode was. It was a short segment (maybe 3 minutes but it was great).

Thank you Sara!! I REALLY didn’t want to have to download Itunes just for this.

By: Sara

I listened to it again and found it even funnier, I love when the guy gets angry at the person helping him.

Oh, and anyone who can’t download it via Itunes, you can download it from the link off of my name.

This isn’t on the UK iTunes, sadly. Crushed – I would love to hear what he came up with! What a legend.

I downloaded iTunes just to listen to this – hilarious!!!! Well worth it. I’m just not sure a transcript would do it justice.

Absolutely hilarious! Thanks for putting this up – my chuckle for the day!

OK, I totally laughed out loud when the guy kept saying “Shaman”.. Haha. It’s incredible to think he thought that up and wrote it in high school. BJ is great!

Anyone want to be a really nice, cool, heroic loser and transcript this for all those who can’t get/don’t have/don’t want iTunes?

I love when he tells them to lift the top off the glass case to smell the scroll. Can’t you just see the museum people freaking out if someone actually did that?

Also, how many people do you think started to do the hokey pokey before they realized what they were doing. That was great.

This was so hilarious because it starts so subtle and then just goes off the deep end. I love it!

I liked the “Shine” part LOL I’m guessing people didn’t realize it for awhile. He doesn’t get going ’til about halfway through. Hokey pokey break LOL

“Anyway, I’m rambling.” Haha. Here’s what I want to know… how far in the tour did people get before they realized something wasn’t right?
