Scandal erupted at this year’s town picnic when a two-man team was caught cheating during the three-legged race. It seemed the runners, who won the race, used an artificial, retractable fourth appendage which, literally, gave them a leg up on the competition.
Cameras caught the chicanery, however, and the judges called the men to an urgent meeting.
“Nowhere in the rules does it say,” said the men, “that we can’t use an extra limb.”
The judges harrumphed, “That’s ridiculous! The whole idea of a three-legged race is to use only three legs. Give back the trophy!”
“You mean we’re disqualified?” came the reply.
“Of course,” said the judges, “you Four-Footed.”
