“He thought it was food from home—then opened the box” 📦😂 A college student’s excitement turned to confusion when he unwrapped his parents’ surprise package… only to find garbage inside. But the note they left made the internet roar with laughter. See the viral prank in the article below 👇
Packages from home are always a highlight for college students, whether they arrive by bus, train, or delivery van. They usually bring comfort food, treats, and a taste of home. But in this story, one student learned that parents can also have a sneaky sense of humor.
It happened during his first year at university. He had just moved into his dorm in Bucharest and was starting to settle in. One day, he got a call from his parents telling him they were sending a package.
Excited, the student went to the train station to pick it up. The box was large and heavy, so he quickly took it back to his room, expecting food or goodies from home.
But when he opened the package, he was completely confused. There were no snacks or meals inside—just garbage and empty wrappers.
He stood there stunned, unsure what to think. That’s when he spotted a note tucked inside the box.
The message was short but clear:
“You forgot to clean your room before you left. Please take out the trash.”
Once the surprise wore off, the student couldn’t help but laugh. His parents had pulled a perfect prank to teach him a lesson.
He later shared the funny moment on Facebook, posting about the unexpected “gift” from home. The story quickly went viral, earning thousands of likes, shares, and amused comments.
Apparently, sometimes the best care packages are the ones that come with a lesson—and a good laugh.
