As we got ready to watch the Florida vs LSU ball game, some of the gang wanted to watch with us. Seemed like a good idea at the time. However, I didn't think about having a tiger and an alligator in the bunch.
|
The Florida Gators were in blue & red, and LSU Tigers were in gold & blue. It should be a good game.
|
Florida scored first. Right away Vinny jumped up on Alphonse and began to rag Terribly (the tiger, who is a new addition to our place). Ya Ya Ya, said Vinny. Get off of me, said Al.
|
Then LSU scored and Terribly jumped up on Al and started to rag Vinny. Ya Ya Ya, said Terribly. Get off of me, said Al.
|
Next, Terribly and Vinny jumped on Al and began to "rassle". Al yelled,you guys are killing me - get off!
|
Barely & Hicky, said Al, please get those crazy critters off of me before I suffocate. We're trying said Barely.
|
You guys have got to stop the fighting over a silly football game, said Al. We have to stand and cheer our teams, said Vinny. That's ok, said Al, but don't keep fighting. We need to separate them further, said Hicky. Good idea, Said Barely.
|
Maybe this will help, said Al, and we can watch the game in peace.
|
There was a costly penalty to the Tigers which didn't set well with the LSU fans. Immediately Terribly jumped over Hicky and Al and landed on Barely. Vinny saw him and jumped on barely as well.
|
Now we have a free-for-all. Barely is yelling for everyone to get off of him, Al is trying to get them separated. Florida is cheating, yelled Terribly. No, yelled Vinny, LSU is cheating. No one is cheating, said Al, please stop fighting.
|
I've got Vinny, yelled Al. Barely, you and Hicky get Terribly away from us.
|
Keep pushing guys, said Al, we need to get them apart.
|
 OK, said Al, we got them apart. We need to keep it that way.
ENOUGH, said Mac, I can't hear the game for all the fussing and fighting.
|
Vinny, said Mac, you, Al and Hicky get in the chair and stay there.
|
 Terribly, said Mac, you and Barely get on the leather stool and stay there.
Now then, said Mac, you can cheer for your teams. However, there will be no more ragging and no more fighting. If either Vinny or Terribly get down before the game is over, I will lock you all in the closet so I can hear the game!
