HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT THE TWO DUCK HUNTERS FROM Minnesota ?
ABSOLUTELY A TRUE STORY HEARD ON A Minnesota RADIO STATION REPORTING ON THE INCIDENT.
A guy buys a new Lincoln Navigator for $42,500.00 (with monthly payments
of $860.00).
He and a friend go duck hunting in upper Minnesota . It's mid-winter;
and of course all of the lakes are frozen. These two guys go out on the
ice with their GUNS, a DOG, and of course the new NAVIGATOR.
They decide they want to make a natural looking open water for the ducks
to focus on, something for the decoys to float in. Now making a hole
in the ice large enough to invite a passing duck, is going to take a
little more power than the average drill auger can produce. So, out of
the back of the new Navigator comes a stick of dynamite with a short 40
second-fuse. Now our two Rocket Scientists, afraid they might slip on
the ice while trying to run away after lighting the fuse (and becoming
toast, along with the Navigator), decide on the following course of
action:
They light the 40 second fuse; then, with a mighty thrust, they throw
the stick of dynamite as far away as possible. Remember a couple of
paragraphs back when I mentioned the NAVIGATOR, The GUNS, and the
DOG...?
Let's talk about the dog: A highly trained Black Lab used for
RETRIEVING; especially things thrown by the owner. You guessed it:
The dog takes off across the ice at a high rate of speed and grabs the
stick of dynamite, with the burning 40-second fuse, just as it hits the
ice.
The two men swallow, blink, start waving their arms and, with veins in
their necks swelling to resemble stalks of rhubarb, scream and holler
at the dog to stop.. The dog, now apparently cheered on by his Master,
keeps coming. One hunter panics, grabs the shotgun and shoots the dog.
The shotgun is loaded with #8 bird shot, hardly big enough to stop a
Black Lab.
The dog stops for a moment, slightly confused, then continues on.
Another shot, and this time the dog, still standing, becomes really
confused and of course terrified, thinks these two geniuses have gone
insane. The dog takes off to find cover, UNDER the brand new Navigator
The men continue to scream as they run. The red hot exhaust pipe on the
truck touches the dog's rear end, he yelps, drops the dynamite under
the truck and takes off after his master.
Then " "" "" "" "" BOOOOOOOOOOOOM "" "" "" "" ! ! !
The truck is blown to bits and sinks to the bottom of the lake, leaving
the two idiots standing there with "I can't believe this just happened"
looks on their faces.
The insurance company says that sinking a vehicle in a lake by Illegal
use of explosives is NOT COVERED by the policy. And he still had yet to
make the first of those $860.00 a month payments.
The dog is okay. . .doing fine.
And you thought Rednecks only live in the South..
