April fools kings article - how lame

The Kings claim to have signed Eric Grothe jr, a former rugby league player. The silly thing is, they might get an extra 1000 people to the game because they think it's legit.

If they were gonna pull a stunt like this, why not say they were signing Barack Obama or Usher for one game?

It is not much of an April Fools Joke unless it fools some fools.

I think its good!
Rugby League appeals to the masses in NSW so its smart.
Its funny because some people might actually believe it..whereas no one is going to believe them if they said they signed Usher or Obama!
Some people are going to be fooled here...no one is going to be fooled if they said they signed Usher or Obama because no one is going to believe that in the first place.
