Packers vs. Vikings
Once a long time ago, there was a season when neither the Packers nor the Vikings made the post-season playoffs. It seemed so unusual that the management of both teams got together and decided that there should be some sort of competition between the two teams, because of their great on-going rivalry.
So they decided on a week-long fishing competition. The team that catches the most fish at the end of the week wins.
On a cold, northern Wisconsin lake, they began their contest.
The first day, after 8 hours of fishing, the Vikings had caught 100 fish, and the Packers had none.
At the end of the second day, the Vikings had caught 200 fish, and the Packers caught none again.
That evening the Packers’ coach got his team together and said, “I suspect some kind of cheating is taking place.” So the next morning, he dressed one of his players in purple and gold and sent him over to the Viking camp to act as a spy.
At the end of the day, he came back to report to the coach. The coach asked, “Well, how about it? Are they cheating?”
“The sure are!” the player reported. “They’re cutting holes in the ice!”
