How did people "troll" before the internet?

My dad told me that him and his friends would ring peoples' doorbells or knock on their doors and run 馃槅.

Here is an example of adolescent trolling, in the form of prank phone calls.

Once, a friend and I, about age 14 at the time, called a number at random.

"Is Frank Wall there?" I asked. "Sorry, wrong number."

A few minutes later, he called the same number.

"Is Judy Wall there?" No

A few minutes later, "Is George Wall there?" No

A few minutes later, "Is Susan Wall there?" No. "Well, if none of the four Walls are there, how does your roof stay up?"
