4. True story - a guy in Texas couldn't get his family to come visit, so

He had them all sent notifications that he'd died and inviting them to the reading of his will.

He was very wealthy, having made a fortune in alfalfa farming (he was a classmate of my mother's).

Imagine how surprised those relatives must have been to find out they were having a family reunion, not a funeral -- and any inheritance would not be received anytime soon since the "deceased" was alive and well!
