I want to tell you a story I was thinking about the other day. It comes from a friend of mine, and I make him tell it often. I think Marine Drill Instructors, and hockey players are the funniest people on Earth. I think this story is hilarious, you be the judge.
A couple of seasons back, The Lowell Lockmonsters had Dave MacIssac on their roster. I have never personally seen MacIssac fight, but I heard he was pretty good in his day. Well one evening, the Albany River Rats are in town, and don’t you know, MacIssac, and Rob Skrlac of Albany get into it. By the way, Skrlac will heretofore be known as "Pumpkin Head". That boy has a huuuuuge cranium. Anyhow, the boys get into a bit of a dust up, and apparently Pumpkin Head didn’t like the outcome, so on the way to the box they have this exchange.
Pumpkin Head: (yelling at the top of his lungs) DAVEY BOY, WE GONNA GO AGAIN!! WOOOOOOO!!!!!!
MacIssac: (Shaking his head, and grinning, totally deadpan) Whatever you say Rob.
That story KILLS me every time. Maybe it is one you had to be there for, or maybe it’s funny to you, but it slays me. I can’t wait for the season to get under way. No athlete in the world can trash talk or taunt as well as hockey players. I gotta go again! WOOOOOOO!!!!!
It’s actually really funny when Chris is pie-eyed, and yelling that in a parking lot!
It’s a great story. WOOOO!!!!
