A Chicago sports reporter was walking through Grant Park. He caught sight of two young boys playing football. He also witnessed a vicicious dog run up to one of the boys and start attacking him. The other boy grabbed a fallen tree limb and beat the dog to death, thereby rescuing his friend.
The reporter ran up to the boys and, after making sure that they were both okay, asked if he could write a story about it. The boys agreed, so the reporter pulled out his notepad. Since his expertise was in sports, he decided to give the headline a sports twist. He wrote down "Heroic young Chicago Bears fan saves friend".
The boy who did the saving said, "But, sir, I'm not a Chicago Bears fan."
"Oh." The reporter crossed out the headline and wrote a new one: "Heroic young Minnesota Vikings fan saves friend."
"I'm not a Vikings fan, either," the boy said.
The reporter looked confused. "But most boys in Chicago are either Bears fans or Vikings fans. What team *do* you like?"
"I like the Green Bay Packers!"
The reporter crossed out the second headline and wrote the following:
"Young Cheesehead Bastard Murders Beloved Family Pet"
