Crystal Palace fans thought they were being tricky when they spray-painted the bus that had carried Middlesbrough to their match with Palace on Saturday. The fans sprayed "Crystal Palace FC" on the bus to show Middlesbrough who exactly they were dealing with. What a hilarious prank! One problem: it was Crystal Palace's bus.

It turns out that Middlesbrough flew to London and borrowed one of Crystal Palace's buses to get to Selhurst Park. If only the Palace fans had known beforehand.

Palace officials confirmed it was their bus that had been vandalized. Fortunately, they beat Middlesbrough 1-0, so the weekend wasn't a total loss.
