An Alabama man happily brought home a brand-new bass boat he had just won in a raffle.
His wife looked at it, shook her head, and scoffed, “What are you going to do with that? There isn’t a single drop of water deep enough to float a boat within a hundred miles of here!”
“I won it, and I’m keeping it,” he insisted.
A few days later, his brother dropped by and asked where he was. The wife simply sighed and pointed toward the massive, dusty field behind the house.
The brother walked out back and was stunned to see him sitting dead-center in the dry field, perched inside the boat with a fishing rod in hand.
“What the hell are you doing out here?!” the brother yelled.
“I’m fishing! What does it look like I’m doing?” he shouted back.
The brother threw his hands up in absolute frustration and screamed:
“It’s people like you who give folks from Alabama a bad name, making everybody think we’re stupid! If I could swim, I’d come out there and whip your ass!”
