On an April 1 show in 2008, both Dennis and Callahan during a top ten April fools prank list made mention to a prank done by Opie and Anthony that caused them to be fired from WAAF, a Boston radio station. The "prank" which they referred to was done because Opie & Anthony hated radio April fools pranks and felt they are only done by hack radio jocks. As a result, they made five false statements and admitted 4 of them were fake except for the fifth one in which they said the mayor had died after flipping his car on a bridge, the airborne car then went over the dividing jersey barrier and landed into the oncoming traffic lane where it was hit by a tractor trailer truck. They also said there was a hooker of African American descent in the passenger seat at the time of the accident.

William J. McCarthy (July 2, 1919 - November 19, 1998) was an American labor leader and official in the Teamsters. He was appointed president of the Teamsters on July 18, 1988, defeating interim president Weldon Mathis.
