Mr Burger Wins April Fool's Day with Too Good to be True Burger Tram Prank

Anyone who's been on a tram when some entitled hungry arsehole thinks they're hungry and entitled enough to get on board with a bag of dim sims can agree that hot food on trams is a big fat red no symbol. But if its burgers? Well, maybe we can come around. And if it's a whole tram dedicated to Mr Burger burgers? Yep, we can definitely, 100 percent get on board with that. Literally.

But unfortunately that's not going to happen anytime soon. Although Mr Burger seriously entertained the idea in an April Fool's announcement on their Facebook page earlier this morning. Branching out from food trucks and into the realm of food trams, the Mr Burger Tram was to take over one of Yarra Trams' B-class trams on the number 8 line from April to September. This tram of dreams would serve burgers, sides and drinks from a kitchen "specially fitted in the rear of the tram" — and you wouldn't need to tap on, you'd just need to buy a burger. If only.

The jig was given up a few hours later through some comments on their Facebook page. We've got to give it to them — the Mr Burger team are about as good at pulling our legs as they are at flipping delicious burgs. Just look at these images:

Along with some pretty great PhotoShop skills, they also tapped into something that Melburnians obviously — from the euphoric responses — want so bad. And it isn't actually so unbelievable. We do have a burger joint in a train carriage on a rooftop, after all.

If your dreams of eating unabashedly on public transport are crushed, never fear. You can just grab one to go and hop on any tram you like to dig in. Just be prepared to cop daggers from other passengers.
