Kind of have to agree there. If major newspapers allow themselves to print non-factual stories on that day, I think we can forgive ourselves as well. Can we fudge up a hoax, new information on the flat earth theory, etc etc?
Probably not: but what we can do is announce some spurious change to Wikipedia policy or governance.
What would REALLY mess with people's heads would be announcing some dramatic change in policy like the abolishment of Articles For Deletion on April 1, and then sticking with it.
