Joseph boskin, honorary professor of American humor at Boston University, put forward his own views on the historical origin of April Fool's Day. He thinks April Fool's Day originated as a joke. 1983, the king of Persia once said that the concept of April Fool's Day originated from Roman clowns in Constantine I of Rome in the third and fourth centuries.

It is said that at that time, clowns petitioned the ruler successfully, and the ruler allowed them to recommend a member to become king one day. So, on April 1 day, Constantine I handed over the rule of the Roman Empire to one of his clowns, King Kujil. Kujir immediately issued a decree to make April 1 day an absurd day forever. Boskin said that news organizations at that time were not very interested in this topic. "I think I should have been praised by everyone for this bizarre story."

The most typical activity of April Fool's Day is that everyone plays jokes on each other and plays tricks on each other with lies.

There is also the custom of cooking fake dishes at April Fool's Day parties. Someone once described a typical April Fool's Day recipe: first, it was a "salad" with green peppers on the leaves of lettuce, but after uncovering the leaves, it was discovered that it was an oyster cocktail underneath; The second course is "baked potato", in fact, there are sweet bread crumbs and fresh mushrooms below; Since then, there have been roast chicken disguised with crab meat and raspberry ice cream buried under tomato salad. After dinner, guests can also take candy out of the pill box.
