This isn't first hand (and what goes on tour...???)
A lil joke that went on @ equities floors;
Traders/MM's would pick a sales guy,
Trader #1 walks over to sales, asks him about moving something or other, tits and 8rse, etc....
meanwhile, trader #2 would get a bottle of coke (not the columbian variety), and put in a stackload of "solpadeine"or Alka Seltzer in the bottle, then tighten the lid up hard. While salesman is distracted, trader #2 puts it under his desk, then they both retire to a safe distance.
Traders #1, #2, and most of the immediate floor, watch salesman sh!t himself on the telephone to a customer as the bottle pops by his feet.
