What would Boston be like if the city announced it was taking the T off the tracks? Or if the South End was becoming South Boston + South Boston would now be called the South End?

With April Fools' Day just around the corner, here are a handful of the wildest (fake) citywide announcements — courtesy of our readers.

What would Boston be like if…

"Dunkin' is being bought out by Starbucks" — @ddpho_to

"J. Lo converted Ben Affleck to a Yankees fan." — @amyhoro

“Boston University and Boston College announce a merger via press release.” — Simone M.

“Sweet Caroline will never be played at a Sox game again.” — @hamiltonisabel

“The T is free.” — @paperlessprinter

“Espresso martini is named the worst drink in Boston.” — @christinabowley

“The word wicked is banned.” — @emma_cashmoney

“Marathon Monday is canceled.” — @grace_cavanagh

“Tom Brady comes back to the Pats.” — @lindsey_volk

“Filene’s Basement is coming back.” — @robert_matthew__

For the most part, we’re happy these are fake situations. Boston just wouldn’t be the same if the Citgo sign was moved from Kenmore Square, or if the only acceptable space savers were lawn mowers.
