A fake report saying the drinking age will change from 21 to 25 (or 23) is nothing more than a prank.

The article was posted on NipsysNews.com a few months ago and a screenshot of it was being shared on Saturday, Aug. 2.

“As of August 2, 2014 legal age to drink wil be 25. There has been controversy whether 21 is too young to make decisions. Alot of citizens state at that age they are not mentally responsible to drink. So the legislation at the White House has come to an agreement to have legal age changed to 25,”

When one clicks on the post, they’re taken to a page that says it’s all a hoax.

It reads:

“Don’t worry, you are not the only one. [9 million] people already fell for this. If you liked the joke, you can share it and trick your friends. Also you can create a joke of your own clicking the button below!”
