Da Bears....
A Packer fan, a Viking fan, and a Bear fan were all in Saudi Arabia,
sharing a smuggled crate of booze. All of a sudden the Saudi police
rushed in and arrested them. The mere possession of alcohol is a severe
offense in Saudi Arabia; so for the terrible crime of actually being
caught consuming the booze, they were sentenced to death!
However, with the help of very good lawyers, they were able to
successfully appeal their sentence down to life imprisonment. By a
stroke of luck, it was a Saudi National holiday the day their trial
finished, and the extremely benevolent Sheik decided they could be
released after receiving just 20 lashes each of the whip.
As they were preparing for their punishment, the Sheik suddenly said,
"It's my first wife's birthday today, and she has asked me to allow each
of you one wish before your whipping."
The Viking fan was first in line (he had drunk the least), so he thought
about this for a while and then said, "Please tie a pillow to my back."
This was done, but the pillow only lasted 10 lashes before the whip went
through. The Viking fan had to be carried away bleeding and crying with
pain when the punishment was done.
The Packer fan was next up (he almost finished an entire fifth by
himself), and after watching the scene, said "All Right! Please fix two
pillows on my back. "But even two pillows could only take 15 lashes
before the whip went through again, sending the Packer fan out crying
like a little girl.
The Bear fan was the last one up (he had finished off the crate), but
before he could say anything, the Sheik turned to him and said, "You
support the greatest team in the world, your team has some of the best
and most
loyal football fans in the world. For this, you may have two wishes!"
"Thanks, your most Royal highness," the Bear fan replies. "In
recognition of your kindness, my first wish is that you give me not 20,
but 100 lashes."
"Not only are you an honorable, handsome, and powerful man, you are also
very brave," the Sheik says with an admiring look on his face. "If 100
lashes is what you desire, then so be it. And your second wish? What is
it to be?" the Sheik asks.
"Tie the Packer fan to my back."
