Imagine clicking a link and ending up on one of these 404 pages where you have to do mental work for 15 seconds just to figure out whether you've even arrived on the right page or not.

This isn't my website, but I did build it for a client. Super secret hidden basketball game, check it:

Two out of time GIFs so it loops less frequently, and a Futurama reference. :P

Make sure to have sound on:

On all pages the background behind the main white is red. You have to pull the edges at top/right/left/bottom via scrolling (and have to do it in Safari or Chrome) to see it.

The idea for the 404 is that the page can't be found, therefore there's no white "page" on top of the red and just the red is showing.

It’s my homage to Dawson’s Creek. Click/tap “enjoy the music” with the sound on to enhance the experience

Too bad this blog never really got used, but it was a good learning experience converting a bootstrap design to a wordpress template. http://welcomehomemusic.net/showDNmy404

ooh! Something I can answer.

This is ages old but on my personal site the 404 gives you a random quote from a Wes Anderson movie. (refresh a few times to see them all)
