Steelers fan pranks Broncos fan by putting his house up for sale for Super Bowl tickets

What are friends for?

If you’re a guy, that friendship sometimes includes pranks. You know, like ordering a pizza to a friend’s house or putting his house up for sale.

Seriously.

The latter happened to a man in Erie, Colorado.

Brian Lusk is a Broncos fan, and according to the Denver Post, Lusk is friends with a Steelers fan. The Broncos beat Pittsburgh in the playoffs and there was a good amount of ribbing.

Lusk’s friend looked for payback.

“When they played in the playoffs, I rode him hard for a few days,” Lusk told the Post. “He texted me back and said he was going to get me.”

The friend did so by placing an advertisement in three newspapers with a photo of Lusk’s house.

Here’s what the ad said:

2100 sq ft 3BR 2BA

Home in Erie FSBO.

Getting Divorced;

Leaving Her with

Nothing. Will Sell

Home for 2 Tickets to

the Superbowl with

Air Fare & Lodging.

Must Act Fast!

Serious Inquiries

Only!

“I answered a phone call on Friday morning about my house being for sale,” Lusk said. “She read off the ad. It all started clicking for me. I figured out who was doing it.”

The Post reported that the house is not on the market and that Lusk and his wife are happily married.

Still, I wonder what she thinks of her husband’s pal.

Here is WPXI-TV story on the prank:
