Jan 6, 2010: Deadolph the green-eyed busdeer



Quote:
There's no such thing as a 10-pointer in basketball, but the Rushford-Peterson boys team got one after their game Monday night. A school bus carrying the varsity team slammed into a 10-point buck on the drive home following Rushford-Peterson's victory over Spring Grove.

Apparently there's no such thing as a decent camera either.

Quote:
As [Coach] Vix examined the situation, he knew he couldn't leave the trophy deer on the roadside where it could be a danger to other motorists. Vix also knows his boys well. Some of them likely would have gone back on the icy roads later that night to get back to the deer, he said. Vix wanted his team safe, so he called the DNR for the necessary permits, which were given on the condition that the antlers would go to the school and not to any one person, and then loaded the buck through the emergency door and onto the bus.

Now I know that you are thinking:



Alas, sadly,

Quote:
Most of the meat on the deer was destroyed by the impact, but a local taxidermist has volunteer to work on the antlers so that they can be kept in school's natural resources room.

Most of the meat. Country folk know best.

That hot dog is getting a tongue bath by the bottle of ketchup.

Look at that tongue, it's a cover up. It ain't dead, it's drunk.

I can't imagine holding it up like that and grinning. I'd be so upset to have hit the deer.

I remember reading a news story once about someone who hit a deer and put the body in the back seat to take home to eat, and the thing regained consciousness. It wasn't dead, you see. And it tore the crap out of the inside of the car and injured the driver. I can just picture that happening on this bus. You can too. Go on. Imagine it.

Perhaps the boy is happy that he and his family will have something to eat for several weeks.
After Mom got laid off from her job at the laundromat, she's been struggling to stretch the family's food budget by stocking up on ramen noodles and acorn squash. And for the past few weeks, ever since these abnormally harsh blizzards starting pummeling most of the country, she's been worried about being able to pay the heating bill, too.
The family has been praying for months that Al Gore's promise of a sunny, global warming would come true, but so far it's been nothing but lies. And tonight God answered their prayer in the form of 400 quarter-pound venisonburgers.

I know those are both movies, but I haven't seen either of them. Did they do that gag?

Thanks for the "bambulance" link - very funny, but also very true. Lots of hunters have experienced the "dead" deer (whatever), not being dead at all, and (naturally enough), not happy with said hunter.

Last one I heard about happened to an elk hunter. Big rack on the elk, and he had to have a picture with his rifle across the elk's antlers (you've all seen that kind). With the click of the shutter, the elk came to, and the hunter became the wrestler, aka rag doll.

The match was finally ended with some help from his buddy's rifle, but not before the hunter was in need of a hospital, right away.

His description of the experience was an absolute laugh riot. I'll see if I can dig up the link to that.
