While sports fishing off the Florida coast, a tourist capsized his boat. He could swim, but his fear of alligators kept him clinging to the overturned craft.
Spotting an old beachcomber standing on the shore, the tourist shouted, "Are there any gators around here?"
"Naw," the man hollered back, "they ain't been around for years!"
Feeling safe, the tourist started swimming leisurely toward the shore.
About halfway there he asked the guy, "How'd you get rid of the gators?"
"We didn't do nothing,'" the beachcomber said.
"Wow," said the tourist.
The beachcomber added, "The sharks got 'em."

A little old lady is walking down the street, dragging two plastic garbage bags with her, one in each hand. There's a hole in one of the bags, and every once in a while a $20 bill is flying out of it onto the pavement.
Noticing this, a policeman stops her...."Ma'am, there are $20 bills falling out of that bag..." "Damn!" says the little old lady....."I'd better go back and see if I can still find some. Thanks for the warning!"
"Well, now, not so fast," says the cop. "How did you get all that money?" " Did you steal it?"
"Oh, no", says the little old lady. "You see, my back yard backs up to the parking lot of the football stadium. Each time there's a game, a lot of fans come and pee in the bushes, right into my flower beds!"
"So, I go and stand behind the bushes with a big hedge clipper, and eachtime someone sticks his little thingie through the bushes, I say: $20 or off it comes!"
"Hey, not a bad idea!" laughs the cop. "OK, good luck! By the way, what's in the other bag?"
"Well", says the little old lady, "not all of them pay up"....

Chip, his wife Anne and his family attended as many local high school football games as they could every fall. After an especially exciting Friday night game, the whole family was exhausted from yelling and screaming.
On Monday morning, their youngest, six-year-old Breanne, went to the breakfast table and, in a hoarse voice, announced, "I can't go to school today."
"Why not?" asked her parents.
Breanne replied, "I was cheering so much I have yeller fever."

Four football fans go rock climbing one afternoon, a Michigan fan, an Ohio State fan, a Notre Dame fan, and a Penn State fan. They had been arguing all the way up the mountain about who among them was the most "die-hard" fan.
Upon reaching the top of the mountain, the Notre Dame fan proclaimed to the other four, "This is for the Fighting Irish!" and promptly threw himself off the mountain as a form of sacrifice.
Not to be outdone by a Notre Dame fan, the Penn State fan jumped up and shouted, "This is for the Nittany Lions!" and then threw himself off the mountain.
Refusing to be outdone by the Notre Dame and Penn State fans, the Ohio State fan rose to his feet and yelled at the top of his lungs "This is for the Buckeyes!" and without any hesitation pushed the Michigan fan off the mountain.

From a vacant lot across the street, twelve-year-old Dave and his older brother Joe Jr., sixteen, took turns pitching hardballs to each other and hitting toward their house, about 150 feet away.
One day, Dave hit a drive that shattered the bathroom window.
After warning his sons about being more careful, Joe Sr. replaced the window. But the very next day, Dave blasted another pitch from his brother that slammed into the very same window, breaking it again.
Knowing their father would be furious, Dave and Joe Jr. pulled down the venetian blinds in the bathroom to hide the damage.
When Joe Sr. discovered what happened, he confronted the boys. His anger was softened when Dave said, "But, Dad, you should be glad that I can hit it that far."

At one point during a game, the coach called one of his 7-year-old baseball players aside and asked, "Do you understand what cooperation is? What a team is?"
The little boy nodded in the affirmative.
"Do you understand that what matters is whether we win or lose together as a team?"
The little boy nodded yes.
"So," the coach continued, "I'm sure you know, when an out is called, you shouldn't argue, curse, attack the umpire, or call him a pecker-head. Do you understand all that?"
Again the little boy nodded.
He continued, "And when I take you out of the game so another boy gets a chance to play, it's not good sportsmanship to call your coach 'a dumb asshole' is it?"
Again the little boy nodded.
"Good," said the coach. "Now go over there and explain all that to your mother."
