benstone84111 Posted January 26, 2010 Report Posted January 26, 2010 This is one of the best pranks I have ever seen. Colton is an inspiration! He is from Kearns Ut and a friend made up a fake mission call to Magna Ut. He is going to be a great missionary! Quote
pam Posted January 26, 2010 Report Posted January 26, 2010 Well dang it...after all of that..we didn't get to see where he was REALLY going. Quote
Lbybug Posted January 26, 2010 Report Posted January 26, 2010 there's a comment on it saying he's really going to san diego spanish mission. too funny Quote
pam Posted January 26, 2010 Report Posted January 26, 2010 What I missed that? I missed San Diego? How could I? How lucky can that guy be? Quote
Lbybug Posted January 26, 2010 Report Posted January 26, 2010 lol i know pam, seriously. you of all people should have seen the words SAN DIEGO sticking out like...something. haha. lucky kid. Quote
Honor Posted January 26, 2010 Report Posted January 26, 2010 This is one of the best pranks I have ever seen. Colton is an inspiration! He is from Kearns Ut and a friend made up a fake mission call to Magna Ut. He is going to be a great missionary! Poor kid! I'm assuming this is one of your friends right? Planned and executed perfectly, especially with plenty of time for his reaction. "Are you F'in kidding me?!" Best reaction ever! I love it!Can you imagine if he opened the real one and it said something like Ogden? Quote
dazed-and-confused Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 very funny.....and i couldn't help but feel the love his friend's have for him. maybe it's just me...lol. Quote
Jenamarie Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 My brother actually DID think his mission call was a joke, even though it wasn't. We lived in California, but had/have tons of family in Northern Utah, and he got called to Ogden! He laughed his head off when he figured out they were serious. (he wasn't disappointed, and it turned out to be a blessing, since he became very ill while on his mission, and he was able to have family around him while he was in the hospital). Quote
pam Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 I really can't wait to see the REAL opening of the mission call. I watched this two more times today and I still was busting out laughing over it. Quote
benstone84111 Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Posted January 27, 2010 Colton is an amazing young man. I can't believe how well he took it! My son, Bryan, was the mastermind behind the prank and he spent hours on creating the letter and fake envelope. I watch this every day and find something else to laugh at and love. His friends are all an incredible bunch of guys and are lucky and blessed to have each other. My son is not a member but he is always included in everything they do. I am very thankful for they love they have for him. Colton was ecstatic about his call to San Diego and thrilled to be learning Spanish. I think he is looking forward to proselytising on the beach! Thanks for you warm comments, I will share them with the guys. Quote
pam Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 When will the next segment be posted on YouTube? I'm from San Diego and he will absolutely LOVE it there. I'm so jealous he gets to go there. Quote
pam Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 Now I feel like we have a stake in this young man. Like we want to keep up with him. :) Quote
annamaureen Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 Oh man, I busted up laughing! I wonder if a missionary would ever actually be called to serve somewhere that close to home? Quote
talisyn Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 Such a good kid, he was trying so hard to accept it. I'm sure he'll be a blessing to those he sees in San Diego. I'm jealous too, that place is wonderful (from the Imperial Valley myself ).. Quote

pam Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 I didn't take it that Colton and Bryan were brothers but friends. Quote
Misshalfway Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 I didn't take it that Colton and Bryan were brothers but friends.Oh whatever. It's early in the morning and I can bearly focus. Quote
boyando Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 Very funny. Am I the only one to notice that Magna (my township) and Kearns (his township) are in the same mission? Quote
boyando Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 Oh man, I busted up laughing! I wonder if a missionary would ever actually be called to serve somewhere that close to home?While serving my mission, thirty three years ago, in the Roanoke, Virginia mission, there was a fellow missionary, who hailed from somewhere in side our mission. He was a covert to the Church and spent most of his mission, serving in the mission home. Not because the mission President wanted to keep an eye on the missionary, but to protect the missionary from his mom, who was not a member of the Church. He was a good missionary even with extra problems. Quote
StrawberryFields Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 That was so much fun to watch!!!Here is the link for the REAL Opening.YouTube - boarderbryan's ChannelWhat a neat kid!:) Quote
benstone84111 Posted February 3, 2010 Author Report Posted February 3, 2010 Thanks Boyando, That makes it even funnier! Quote
