First Game

It’s time for one of those cartoons that nobody gets. Well, nobody except maybe sports officials. Taken from the long list of “things shouted on the field” this insinuation is so old that it was probably yelled during the first game ever played.

The first person I showed this cartoon to didn’t understand it. She wanted me to explain it to her. I didn’t. I won’t explain it to you either.

I did give her a hint. You’ve got to know a tiny bit about names of Arkansas towns.
