Answers:
I sure do! My sister and I would call drug stores and ask "do you have Prince Albert in the can!?" and then say "you'd better let him out", or ask "do you have Max Factor in a bottle" and then ask "how can he breathe !?" Sometimes we would call burlesque houses and ask if they were hiring!.
Or we'd order a pizza delivered to someone's home or put dog poop in a paper bag, put it on someone's porch, set fire to it and watch them stomp it out!. We were little devils at the time and our parents never were aware of what we were doing!. I'm 62 by the way and remember it well!.

Do you mean like "cranking" two long's and a short!?
I grew up where there was no phone at all for awhile!. The first phone we got was a crank phone on a party line!. You could hear everyone on the line, much like you hear everyone on your home phone line!. Everyone's phone rang on every call!. You identified your own call by the crank ring pattern, like morse code!. Crank two shorts and two shorts, or two shorts and a long, or two longs, or two shorts,etc!.
You could identify your neighbor's call by their ring pattern!. One party line was on one road so you listen in on your neighbor's calls real well!. There was no need for your type of "crank call"!. That's probably where "telephone tag" came from!. We each had our own "tag"!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

My brother (back in the early 1960's) call our neighborhood grocery store and asked the butcher if he had pigs feet!. When he said "yes I do" my brother said "You poor thing I'll pray for you!." I say thank God for caller IDWww@Enter-QA@Com
