Yikes! Terrifying. So realistic I almost believed it. Luckily I
already remembered it was April Fools Day because of Drew Carey's
stunt on The Price Is Right this morning. One very confused lady was
asked to bid on a trip to "Boguslovakia" and shown pictures of
dilapidated airplanes and hotels advertising it. When she finally
figured out it was joke (confusing because the show wasn't taped on
April 1), they brought out a Corvette for her to bid on instead.

P.S. Yes, I still watch The Price Is Right sometimes. It brings back
fond memories of childhood visits to my grandparents' house.
