Too Many Piñatas
Thu, Aug 3, 201749 mins
There are 40 piñatas in our studio and the contents of every one has been chosen by a cast member or Impractical Joker. Callers will have the opportunity to pick a piñata, a weapon, and a Joker to smash it. Whatever's inside the piñata the caller wins. They could win items including but not limited to: highly sentimental mementos from our cast, items the Jokers stole from each other, garbage Shannon found moments before air and whatever the Human Fish thinks belongs in a piñata. The only guarantee is that each item comes with a story and no matter what the viewer gets, we're mailing it their way.
