Got Samoa Those Clever Ideas, Kid?
I’m a jumps coach for a high school track and field team. We’re at a long, all-day invitational meet. During the lunch break, the athletes and coaches play “I’ve Never” to pass the time, i.e., each person takes a turn making a statement like, “I’ve never been on an airplane,” and everyone who has done it is out — school-appropriate statements in this instance.
The throws coach is a very large man and also a Pacific Islander. One of the athletes thinks he has the perfect way to get him out.
Athlete: “I’ve never been Samoan!”
Throws Coach: “Ha! I’m not Samoan; I’m Filipino! I’m just fat!”
He ended up winning the round.
