Penobscot Bay Pilot got pranked today
The prank caption read: “Wow, had an INCREDIBLE meal last night at the new Korean BBQ place recently opened in Rockland. Great selection of meats but I think the huge and varied selection of banchan was the real surprise. And some great alcohol options too - including 3 different brands of soju!! Needless to say I'll be back OFTEN.”

CAMDEN — The staff of Penobscot Bay Pilot got really excited to learn that there was going to be a new Korean barbecue joint opening this spring through a succulent photo shared by Charlie S. White Jr. on the Restaurant Reviews for Midcoast Maine Facebook page. Wolffie was all set to do the story, and we were scheduling the night out.
{Buzzer sound} April Fool’s.
Here are a few other April Fool’s pranks floating around the interwebs today from local businesses.
We are excited to announce the opening of our fourth store, conveniently located in beautiful San Juan, Puerto Rico - only a six-hour flight away!
(Hours in the new location will be sporadic, as we will probably be far too busy enjoying the sunshine and beaches).
The Rockport Fire Department is pleased to announce its newest fire truck has arrived!
Happy April! Today is the first official day of spring outfitting, and we think it's also the perfect day to reveal our biggest winter project.
After months of negotiations, we are proud to announce our new corporate sponsorship! There are some huge expenses each year in maintaining and operating a 129-year-old National Historic Landmark (over $20,000 in insurance costs, for example), and this new partnering will defray many of those costs, as well as provide funding for some improvements that have not been possible until now. We think our new sponsor is just the right match for us, and we're sure you'll agree, because...We've got Moxie!
World Federation Wrestling is coming to The Strand??? All right!!
Belfast Historical Society and Museum
Wednesday, April 1 has been designated Belfast Community Hawaiian Day! Join us to celebrate the arrival of spring and say goodbye to this long winter by donning shorts, flip flops, flowered shirts, grass skirts and other Hawaiian-inspired attire - TODAY at 4 p.m. Main Street will be closed to vehicular traffic downtown (surf boards permitted!) for a half hour of hula-dancing, hula-hooping and music. Tropical leis and popsicles will be distributed to participants. Capturing this Hawaiian moment with cameras is encouraged.
[Update: we called them to see if this was real and were told it wasn’t on the calendar. But, just now we received an email that it is happening! It’s real.]
