Hockey Fan

---

Two boys are playing hockey on a pond in a Denver suburb when one is viciously attacked by a Rottweiler. Thinking quickly, the other boy takes his hockey stick, wedges it down into the dog's collar and twists, immobilizing, stunning and rendering the dog unconscious.

A reporter who was passing by sees the incident and rushes over to interview the boy. He starts writing in his notebook: "Young Avalanche Fan Saves Friend From Brutal Dog Attack".

"But, I'm not an Avalanche fan." the little hero replied.

The reporter replied, "Sorry, but since we're in Denver, I just assumed you were".

He starts over---"Little Bronco Fan Rescues Friend From Horrific Attack".

The boy stopped him again saying, "I'm not a Bronco fan either".

"Well", said the reporter, "I assumed everyone in Denver was either for the Avalanche or the Broncos. What team do you root for"?

When the boy replies, "I'm a Red Wings fan", the reporter starts a new sheet in his notebook---"Little *&^%&$# from Detroit Kills Beloved Family Pet."
