Hi Malcolm,
Thought you may enjoy this:
New teacher announces that she is a Collingwood fan. Survey the class;
"Mary, why are you a Richmond fan?" My mum and dad were born and
raised in Richmond, so my mum is a Richmond fan and my dad is a
Richmond fan, and so I'm a Richmond fan too!"
"Well," said the teacher, in an obviously annoyed tone, "that's no
reason for you to be a Richmond fan. You don't have to be just
like your parents all of the time. What if your mum was a
prostitute, your dad was a drug addict, and your brother was a car
thief, what would you be then?"
"Then," Mary said, "I'd be a Collingwood fan."
I am a Lions/Cpllingwood fan. I lived in Melb years ago. Went to the games before VFL became AFL. Now live in Brisbane.
Cheers
