Default what do i do with it

for Christmas this year i was sent a present from my brother from the harry and david stores. Fruit, cheese and summer susages, MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM. but anyway it came in a bright box that reminds me of a hat box its about 5 inches high 12inches across and round. it is fairly well built and the cardboard is of good quality and the outside reminds of that vevet fuzzy wallpaper that they use to put on walls just without the fuzz. i was wondering if any of you had any suggestons on what could be done with it in the way of a trick or gag with out ruining the beauty of the out side. leave it to a clown to get a preasent and look at the box as a bonus for some kind of gag.

Hmm, Spring snake launcher? A dunk tank for a high diving flea for a flea circus bit? To make a snake launcher, go find some spring snakes.Cloth covered are the best. they unload the fastest. First, find out how small they will compress. FInd ,like a soup can, or vegetable can that it will compress into then drill a hole through bothe sides of the can big enough to put a wire thru to pin them in place. attach it to the bottom of the box if you want to snakes line the can up so a longer pin will latch them both. As tall as it is Buck, you may be able to arrange a couple loads to fit the five footers, then you need to put a hole through the side for the pin so it can be tripped from the inside.
If the lid fits tight enough, you coud retrive a cookie or something from the can, snap the lid on and then pull the pin; take off the lid and YEEHAW!
one thing about snakes, don't aim them at people, especially in the days of lawsuits. take them, quake with freight, wrestle them and throw them to the side. a truly great gag.

Been thinking about it Buckaroo,

What if ya put a box inside of it just a tad smaller, then a box inside of that a tad smaller too,,,and so on, and so on. This is called a Nest of Boxes and could be used for some reall good Comedy routines.

get to the last box and pull out that "Baby Rattlesnake" we talked about earlier,,,,

Still Thinking,,,,,
