SKIRMISHER

Zug’s John Hargrave is usually so hilarious you sometimes wonder if he still has some funny shit hiding in his pants.

It turns out that he has.

Using a credit card named to one Michael Jackson, John pulled off an impersonation of the King of Pop that’s so awesome it left me muttering to myself, “I should’ve done that.”

John says of the prank’s aftermath:

We awoke the next morning to a media frenzy. Every news station in Boston picked up the story; it even made the front page of the Boston Herald. Most reporters saw through the disguise, but the story was still irresistible: an unknown gang of pranksters made their way into a black-tie fundraiser, got the V.I.P. treatment, then left with only an anonymous donation.
