A prank usually associated with confusion and mild chaos instead left students pleasantly surprised this week when wallets across campus were mysteriously filled to the brim. What started as a typical April Fools–style stunt turned into a feel-good moment that had students smiling from class to class.
According to eyewitnesses, students returning to their dorms Monday morning found their wallets stuffed with small amounts of cash, gift cards, and even chocolate coins. No notes were left behind, and no culprit has come forward—but the reaction was overwhelmingly positive.
“I thought someone had stolen my wallet, and then I opened it and… wow,” said freshman Liam Ortega. “It was like winning the lottery and finding candy at the same time.”
Campus security confirmed that there was no evidence of theft or foul play. The administration has chosen to remain tight-lipped about the origin of the prank, but social media has been abuzz with speculation and gratitude. #WalletWonder and #PrankPerks have been trending among students.
Some students are already planning to pay it forward. “It’s inspiring,” said senior Riley Morgan. “Everyone’s talking about doing small acts of kindness in response. I think this prank just might start a new tradition.”
The mysterious benefactor, whoever they may be, has officially turned a simple prank into a campus-wide feel-good story, reminding everyone that a little mischief—and generosity—can go a long way.
