PABST BLUE RIBBON- Now thats funny , I don't care who you are.


We seldom get to choose
But I've seen them go both ways
And I would rather go out in a blaze of glory
Than to slowly rot away!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I am going to tell you a story.

A few years ago we hunted with Ray in Tanzania. They came back to camp after dark, and told us that they had shot a monster dugga boy just before sun set, and have not been able to find him.

The next morning, we all went together to help them find it. There was some blood at the biginning, then that disappeared.

Trouble was there were far too many buffalo bull tracks, and after while we all gave up.

Later that day, we were heading back to camp, and we saw some vultures take off not too far away.

We stopped the truck, and went to have a look. We found Ray's dugga boy, mostly eaten by lions and hyaenas, but the head was relatively fine.

We took it back to camp, and gave it to Ray as a present!

Funny enough, the bull was dead about 300 yards from where we stopped looking for him earlier.

Even after it has been mounted, it still looks better than either Bill or Ray clap
