Police: Drunk Pennsylvania Man Tried To 'Revive' Dead Opossum - Where else could this happen?
PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa. (AP) ―
Was this just part of Ground Hog Day or was this the 'Redneck story'...
Jeff Foxworthy tells the story of the old couple who approached him after a show with a “you know your a redneck if...” story. Out of respect he listens to his fans but he’s heard them all before and rarely gives the stories much thought. The older couple started telling the story of their nephew who got his nipple bit off by a beaver. Foxworthy’s eyebrows raised and in a straight and serious face replied, “Okay, go ahead, you have my attention.”
In case you hadn’t heard it, the nephew (and his buddy) ran over a beaver. Of course, they ran back to get it and take it home. The nephew found it in the ditch and grabbed it by the tail, held it up and yelled, “Heeeey, I got it!” Just then, the beaver came to, swung around and bit his nipple.... CLEAN off!
"Beaver and nipple used in the same sentence" in a 'G-rated' Funny story.----- But the Beaver was playing 'Possum.
