Me, my cousin, and my brother were thinking of showing up to this house modeled specifically after a medieval European castle geared in armor and a battering ram.
This house is complete with crenelations, massive wooden doors to look like a drawbridge style gate, etc.
I would rather show up with a siege tower, but it's not exactly feasible.

If they played along, it would probably make my life (not just my day).
Oh, there'd definitely be video of this if we decided upon a good way to go about it.
I was thinking about a trojan bunny, and playing the "building sounds" that play in the background of Monty Python's Quest for the Holy Grail when they build theirs.
I figured being mildly original was a better idea.
We can make chainmail at work with leftover steel welding rods with relative ease. (We've already made gauntlets)

There's a house in GA modeled after a castle, too. Except he has lawn gnomes on the column of stones between the fence parts. I think I have photos somewhere.
But I think your idea is funny. Sounds like something that might appear on Jackass or Triggerhappy.

I just don't want to be on the news for that. I'd never hear the end of it.

Those castles on that website are pretty cool. Didn't know there were so many castles in the US.

i think that's a very creative idea and something people would not soon forget...possibly even posted in the local paper..could make lots of people smile:)
