Learn Why Today Is Tagged April Fool by Onimama2(m): 7:45am On Apr 01, 2017
Many people will be pranked today in commemoration of today which is Tagged as April fool day. Many of us will be fooled, wife will be pranked by husband, father by their children, boss by their subordinate, tenant by the landlord, boyfriend by girlfriend vis-a-vis.

Thus, The historical background of today can be traced to Pope Gregory XIII of France when He adopted the Gregorian
calendar in 1582, which moved the beginning of the year to April From January 1.Although the change was widely advertised, but many people missed it and when those people that had about the change celebrated the new year on April 1 they were seen as been foolish by those who didn't, they were ridiculed, and the day became what is today known as Fools day.

Have you been fooled or fooled anyone today, share your experience and let's share the fun.
